On Saturday, August 12 the Jamaica United Relief Association (JURA) is hosting their annual Jamaica Independence Gala under the distinguished patronage of the Consul General, R. Oliver Mair, Consulate General of Jamaica, Miami.
According to a representative from the organization, “Jamaica just commemorated Emancipation Day, our athletes continue to show the world how amazing they are… What better way to bolster this wonderful feeling than by supporting an organization that has worked tirelessly to improve the lives of Jamaicans for almost 40 years?”
“As proud and active members of the diaspora, we aim to show our support of other organizations throughout the year as often as we can. And you have seen us out and about in 2023. We kindly ask for your support for our upcoming Jamaica Independence Gala.”
Founded in 1985, JURA is always raising funds and supporting health, educational, and social service causes throughout Jamaica.
JURA recipients include the Bustamante Children’s Hospital, Marigold Child Care Center, St. Andrew Parish Church Home for Girls, Lighthouse Holiness Church of God, Mustard Seed Communities, Jamaica Aids Support, Good Shepherd Foundation’s Aids Hospice, Children First (Spanish Town), and many more noteworthy organizations.
