MUSSON FOUNDATION 2018 YEAR IN REVIEW
8
2018 was an exciting year for the Musson Group Foundation, as we funded and spearheaded various projects that support the values we believe in while contributing to achieving Vision 2030 for Jamaica, and the Sustainable Development Goals globally. We continue to be technology led, preparing children and young people to compete in the modern world. We are committed to advancing education, promoting youth development and fostering entrepreneurship and economic independence in young people. With food as the core of our business, we are committed to supporting schools in our communities with their meals and nutrition programmes. We support sports and creative careers as economic drivers in Jamaica, and believe in equal opportunity for all.

THE ROBOTICS TEAM GOES TO PITTSBURGH AND WINS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PRIZE The Musson Foundation, along with the Seprod Foundation sponsored the winning Robotics team to go to the international competition in Pittsburgh to represent their school and Jamaica! The Musson Foundation provided support for transportation and accommodation for the team, as well as team shirts and a videographer to document the activities. Coached by Halls of Learning, the team comprised of four girls and four boys from Allman Town, Calabar, Clan Carthy and North Street primary schools. It was a dream come true for the 10 and 11 year olds who, under the theme, hydro-dynamics, studied the human-water cycle and demonstrated how it related to water pollution on the island.
