Did you know that 1 in 4 Jamaican children live under the poverty line? Or that 30% of children never attend secondary school due to financial struggles? These numbers represent real families—parents forced to choose between feeding their children or paying for school supplies, and kids dropping out because they lack transportation. Entire communities are stuck in a cycle of poverty that seems impossible to escape. Education is supposed to be a pathway to a better life. Still, for many Jamaican children, that path is filled with roadblocks. Without access to proper schooling, they face limited job opportunities, lower incomes, and a future that looks much like the generations before them—a vicious cycle of poverty. Imagine a young boy named David. His mother, a hardworking woman, sells fruits in the market to provide for their family. She dreams of a better life for her son, one where he is not forced to struggle financially. But, without money for school fees, David’s education is inconsistent. Sometimes, he misses weeks because they do not have reliable transportation and cannot afford books. Eventually, he falls too far behind and drops out altogether. Now, as a teenager, David searches for work to help his family but has no diploma. The only jobs available are low-paying and unstable. He wants more for his future, but every door seems closed. The cycle continues—just as his mother struggled, so will he. This is the reality for thousands of families in Jamaica. Education is the missing key, but too many children are locked out of opportunities. Families want a future where their children can: Find stable jobs with livable wages Break free from the struggles they grew up with Build a better life for themselves and their communities At Christos Ministries, we believe no child should be denied an education because of poverty. That’s why we work to build schools, provide financial support, and offer educational resources to children in underdeveloped areas in Jamaica. Here’s how we help break the cycle of poverty: School Construction: We build and expand schools in communities where education access is limited. Educational Resources: We provide books, technology, and classroom materials so students have what they need to learn. Financial Assistance: We help cover school fees, uniforms, and transportation costs, removing barriers that keep kids from attending school. Every dollar donated goes directly toward creating a future where children like David don’t have to choose between survival and education. Now, imagine a different reality. David is no longer forced to stay home because he can’t afford school. Instead, he walks proudly into a newly built classroom, books in hand, eager to learn. His mother no longer worries about whether he will have a future—she sees it unfolding in front of her. Years later, David has a diploma in hand. He lands a stable job, earns a good salary, and helps lift his family out of poverty. His younger siblings follow in his footsteps because education is no longer out of reach. The solution to poverty is not complex—it’s education. By partnering with Christos Ministries, you can actively contribute to making a positive change.
