KEN AND SADIE STUDENT SUPPORT INITIATIVE (KASSSI)
The KEN AND SADIE STUDENT SUPPORT INITIATIVE (KASSSI) is a UK-registered charity (number 1136741) focused on improving educational, health, and social outcomes for financially and emotionally disadvantaged children, families, and communities in Jamaica[1][2][5]. Founded to address systemic barriers to education and empowerment, KASSSI operates through community-driven initiatives in areas such as Petersville, Westmoreland, and other rural regions[1][5].

Mission and Activities

KASSSI’s mission centers on fostering independence and aspiration by addressing poverty, social exclusion, and limited access to resources[1][5]. Its work spans three core areas:

  • Education: Through its Back2School Initiative, the charity provides school uniforms, nutritional support via Breakfast Clubs, and youth development programs to enhance academic engagement[5].
  • Health: Annual Health Awareness Days offer communities access to essential health information and preventive care resources[5].
  • Social Welfare: Efforts include promoting family stability, employment opportunities, and community-building activities to reduce systemic inequalities[1][5].

Structure and Funding

KASSSI emphasizes grassroots involvement, aiming to establish self-sustaining, resident-driven programs across Jamaica[1][5]. It relies on donations, including vehicle contributions through partnerships like Charity Car, to fund its initiatives[5]. Projects are designed to create long-term opportunities for children and families, particularly in underserved rural areas[1][5].

Key Programs

  • Breakfast Clubs: Ensure pupils receive nutritious meals to support learning[5].
  • Uniform Provision: Reduces financial barriers to school attendance[5].
  • Community Workshops: Focus on health literacy and vocational skills[1][5].

KASSSI’s model prioritizes local ownership, aiming to replicate its success in additional communities over time[1][5].

Charity Initiatives Health Awareness Day KASSSIs 5th Health Awareness Day is fast approaching This is a family and Community affair where professionals and clinicians share. Back to School Our Back2School Initiative 201415 provided uniforms for a number of children. I cant help but share this one with you. Bird Box Appeal The Bird Box initiative came about when Judith KASSSIs Secretary attended a fayre at the school and saw the boxes.
