  • The community of Negril was certainly not spared in respect to the impact the Covid-19 pandemic. However, the most vulnerable in our societies seem to have been the most severely impacted. The Negril Chamber of Commerce understood very early that many of it's community members would be hurting in the worst way due to the lockdown of Jamaica. As an organization the Negril Chamber decided to do it's best to help community members.
    In partnership with the Tourism Enhancement Fund (TEF), the Negril Chamber took the initiative to organize over 1,000 grocery and produce filled care packages to distribute to Negril community members most in need. This video illustrates the coordination, togetherness and effort it took to organize and execute such an endeavor. Though the Chamber has helped over a thousand community members on this day there are still many people in need at this time.
    A special thank you to the following organizations and individuals that made this possible:
    The Tourism Enhancement Fund (TEF)
    The Negril Chamber of Commerce Directors
    All the Volunteers
    The Jamaica Constabulary Force
    Frontline Workers
    Essential Workers
    Healthcare Workers

      I would have love to participate if I knew of the event while I was there. Negril has a piece of my heart, as I resided there for a short while before migrating to New York.. That place is magical!.. But your team is doing an amazing job. Let me know how I can contribute to the cause. 🙏 I would love to help/give back..

      Thank you so much for your offer. This was done through the Negril Chamber of Commerece which I do not think is a charitable organization. However if you are interested I can connect you with local Negril non profits that are doing fantastic work in the community that could use the help

    I appreciate this video so much. I have relatives in Jamaica ( orange bay and grange hill as well as Clarendon) who we have been able to provide financial support from abroad but we have been very concerned about the larger Jamaican community. Thank you for sharing this video.
    Please let us know if there is an opportunity to donate to what you’re trying to achieve ✌🏼

    Nice to see people pulling together. My wife and I really miss Jamaica and the people. We were in Negril in January and we were going back in April but had to change our plans. Now we are supposed to travel this November but I don't know if that will work out. Jamaica seems to have their act together as far as controlling the virus.
