The Flow Foundation joined forces with the JPS and Digicel foundations to support the residents of Junction, St Elizabeth, many of whom are still grappling with the aftermath of Hurricane Beryl.

Last Friday (August 9), at the BB Coke High School, the foundations hosted a community relief event that helped to ease the back-to-school demands for parents and provided a fun day for the children. 

The event was themed ‘Connected Life’, which spoke to the collaborative effort to restore normalcy for the residents who were most impacted by the hurricane which bushed just south of the island six weeks ago.

Other partners of the event included Food for the Poor Jamaica, National Water Commission and HEART/NSTA Trust.

Flow provided uniform vouchers for families and powered the event with its high-speed internet.

Continental Europe represents a major growth opportunity for Jamaica, with markets such as Germany, Spain, Italy, France and the Netherlands showing strong interest in long-haul Caribbean travel.
