Natalie’s Story

By Natalie Bowers on September 10, 2023 | Comment

I had the most amazing day when I visited the 1st day of the new school year Infants at Barrett Town Primary School with the wonderful Miss Kameil Brown from the Human Resources team at Half Moon Hotel, Montego Bay, Jamaica.

Having visited Jamaica over 10 times in recent years and helped several individuals on a personal ad-hoc basis, I decided to Pack for a Purpose this year with the hope that I could help some children.

I took various school materials with me and all the kids I met were absolutely delightful. So polite and welcoming and I can’t wait to see them again!

Then Kameil took me to the SOS Childrens Village so that I could donate two large bags of my clothes. I was blown away by the kindness of the management team and it was an absolute pleasure to meet some of the resident children and to view inside the house that is sponsored by the Half Moon.

I definitely want to do more to help both of these fantastic facilities and their gorgeous children. And I will.
