The duo teamed up at the Blossom Gardens Home in Montego Bay on May 25, 2026, getting their hands dirty for the Supreme Ventures Foundation’s Labour Day beautification project to restore and uplift the grounds.

The Supreme Ventures Foundation (SVF) recently journeyed to Montego Bay to carry out a dedicated Labour Day beautification project at the Blossom Gardens Home on May 25, 2026. Operating under the Child Protection and Family Services Agency (CPFSA), the children’s home received a much-needed physical and emotional lift as a team from SVF arrived to paint the facilities and plant vibrant flowers and vegetables in their gardens.

The initiative taps deeply into the long-standing Jamaican tradition of “each one helps one,” a cultural pillar focused on restoring and uplifting the country piece by piece. Recognising the importance of this national effort, Supreme Ventures Foundation saw it as their duty to play a part in labouring for good.

Kerry-Ann Levene, Assistant Manager of Communications and Sponsorship at Supreme Ventures Limited, applies a vibrant new coat of blue paint to the exterior walls of the Blossom Gardens Home. Levene joined the Supreme Ventures Foundation team in Montego Bay on May 25, 2026, rolling up her sleeves to support the Labour Day beautification project and demonstrating the team’s hands-on commitment to community upliftment.

Labour Day in Jamaica represents far more than just a public holiday; it is a reflection of the nation’s history, its struggles, and the collective journey still ahead. Heather Goldson, Executive Director of SVF and Chief Marketing Officer of Supreme Ventures Limited, emphasised the importance of citizens uniting to make the country better. “It’s important for us to understand that ‘each one help one’ really means that all of us get better, not just the people who need the help,” Goldson noted, highlighting the mutual upliftment that comes from national service.

Latoya Miller, Customer Service Representative for Supreme Ventures Limited (Montego Bay branch), helps bring new life to the grounds by planting seedlings in a garden bed. Miller joined the Supreme Ventures Foundation team on May 25, 2026, for their Labour Day beautification initiative at the Blossom Gardens Home in Montego Bay, embracing the spirit of “each one helps one.”

The decision to direct this year’s Labour Day efforts towards a home in western Jamaica was highly intentional. Following the destructive impact of hurricane Melissa the previous year, the Foundation wanted to focus its resources where they could provide immediate visual and emotional relief. Chloleen Daley-Muschett, AVP of PR & Corporate Affairs at Supreme Ventures Limited, explained that selecting a western home was a priority to help beautify the space and provide a much-needed lift after everything the children and staff had endured.

Krista-Gaye Fisher, CEO of Supreme Ventures Services Limited, stays busy on the ground, carrying a paint tray along the walls of the Blossom Gardens Home to assist with a new, educational mural. Fisher joined her colleagues from the Supreme Ventures Foundation in Montego Bay on May 25, 2026, to actively participate in their Labour Day beautification project, reinforcing the organisation’s dedication to uplifting communities and improving the lives of children in state care.

For the staff and children at Blossom Gardens, the intervention could not have come at a better time. Gaylaan Wilson Dixon, Manager at Blossom Gardens, described the SVF initiative as a deeply meaningful and impactful project. She revealed that since the storm, the home had lacked the opportunity and resources to replace many of the things that were lost. Expressing profound gratitude to the Foundation for choosing their home, Wilson Dixon noted that the beautification project would significantly “lift the spirits of both the staff and the children”.

Leading by example, Goldson joined her team in Montego Bay on May 25, 2026, for the Supreme Ventures Foundation’s Labour Day beautification initiative, putting the national “each one helps one” philosophy into action.

Beyond the immediate improvements of fresh paint and new garden beds, the project underscores SVF’s broader philanthropic mission. The Foundation’s primary mission remains firmly on supporting children’s homes and children in state care across Jamaica. Goldson articulated that their presence at Blossom Gardens represents “an ongoing commitment to the general well-being of the island’s most vulnerable populations.” By actively participating in these community projects, SVF takes vital steps to ensure that children in state care are not only looked after but also feel genuinely cherished.
