This Saturday, October 4, Dynamic Women of Purpose, a New York-based 401c non for profit organization, will host its annual fundraising party at Iké Grand Hall in St. Albans, New York.

The 'Cowboy & Cowgirl,' themed fall dance is a must-attend New York calendar event. It promises to be an evening of great entertainment in the spirit of philanthropy. Patrons will be musically entertained by selector Bugsy Bam Bam, Trevor Profile, with special guest DJ Dwayne Extacy, who will play the best selection of reggae, dancehall, R&B, and country songs.

“We’re excited to welcome everyone," Dynamic Women of Purpose founder and president Pauline Dawkins told Caribbean National Weekly.

"The night is going to be loads of fun. And what is most important is that is all for a great cause," she assured.

The non-profit organization was first established in 2008. Since then, dedicated members have raised much-needed cash and kind that have been donated to schools, seniors, and families in Jamaica. Monies have also supported local programs for the needy in New York.

“What started as just something to do in our spare time has grown to a sisterhood. All our members share the same passion of helping others," she shared.

The Dynamic Women of Purpose’s philanthropic mission has benefited the Icylin Baker Basic School in Jamaica, which has received numerous scholarships, school supplies, books, and hot lunches for needy students. The Beecham Hill Primary School in St. Mary has also received much-needed support through donated supplies and a breakfast program that was initiated a few years ago by the group. Families in the Beecham Hill community have also received clothing and toiletries through the Dynamic Women of Purpose outreach.

This year’s fundraiser will continue the mission of giving with proceeds earmarked to purchase school supplies for several schools and organizations in Jamaica, as well as to provide assistance to residents of the Golden Age Home.

“Our motto is 'Helping Where Needed,' and that’s what keeps us doing what we do,” Dawkins reminded.
