and UPLIFT
Empowering students across Jamaica
Hugh James Foundation
As an established foundation, our focus has evolved toward creating long-term support systems for Jamaican schools and students through sustainable educational initiatives and partnerships.
How We're Helping Our Community
Our team visits every home delivering essential supplies to families, the elderly, and those who cannot travel to drop-off points. We ensure no one is overlooked.
Each family receives a customized care package with food, water, medical supplies, and household essentials based on their specific needs and household size.
We prioritize seniors, families with young children, people with disabilities, and those living in the most affected areas, providing extra support where it’s needed most.
We’ve established convenient drop-off locations throughout Cornwall Mountain, making it easy for community members to access supplies or contribute donations.
About
Our mission is to SUPPORT, EDUCATE, and UPLIFT the Cornwall Mountain community.
The Hugh James Foundation, rooted in Cornwall Mountain, Jamaica, now operates School Support Jamaica as part of its commitment to education. In the immediate aftermath of Hurricane Melissa, the foundation’s focus was on providing urgent relief – helping schools recover by restoring safe classrooms and providing essential supplies so students can continue learning in our community. We have since extended our reach and ramped up our efforts to include schools islandwide.

Helping Jamaican Classrooms
School Support Jamaica is the donation platform operated by Hugh James Foundation. Through this platform we are building a culture of shared responsibility, one that strengthens schools, empowers students, and keeps education moving forward.
Resilient
We are on the ground, delivering hope and essential aid to every family in need.
Looking Ahead
While our immediate focus is emergency relief, we’re already planning for long-term recovery.
Through our School Support Jamaica initiative, we’ll help rebuild damaged school buildings, replace lost educational materials, and ensure every child can return to a safe, functional classroom.
The road to full recovery is long, but with continued community support, Cornwall Mountain will not only rebuild, it will thrive.
Your ongoing donations help us transition from crisis response to sustainable community development, creating lasting positive change for generations to come.
