With continued support from donors, sponsors, and patrons, JURA is making a  difference to local hospitals in Jamaica through the donation of equipment and other healthcare supplies.

So far, the Cornwall Regional Hospital in Montego Bay and Victoria  Jubilee Hospital in Kingston have benefitted from donations of five incubators as well as other needed supplies. Over 800 babies are born each month and fewer than 10  incubators are in working condition at the health institutions across the island.

The organization is also seeking to raise capital for their South Florida service projects including a scholarship fund for post-secondary students and donations to organizations feeding the homeless right here in the local community.

JURA has expressed gratitude to its sponsors, the diaspora community, and friends for their continued commitment and support of this life-saving fundraising effort.
