The team at Downsound Entertainment (DSE) redoubled its efforts to alleviate the tough conditions faced by so many families and the elderly across the island due to COVID-19 through the distribution of care packages containing fresh produce, poultry, and canned goods.
With May being Child Month, the packages also included books, toys, and clothes for the children as part of the company's latest effort, which benefited some 718 families in Montego Bay and St Catherine who received care packages .
Over the past week, in addition to the 718 care packages delivered to families in Montego Bay and St Catherine, DSE donated toys and books to over 300 children.
To help celebrate Mother's Day the DSE team recognised three special mothers with a presentation of Mother's Day gift boxes with food, clothing, books, and toys.
The DSE care package initiative began on April 1, 2020 when the team visited farmers in St Elizabeth and Trelawny to purchase ground provisions, and teamed up with Grace Foods, Pepsi, and Stylo G to distribute packages to families and individuals in need across Kingston and St Andrew.
