2025

JAN 30 ::::  Let’s Connect with Ambassador Marks

The Jamaica Foundation of Houston joined the ‘Let’s Connect with Ambassador Marks’ virtual meeting with Ambassador Audrey Marks, Consul General Roach-Wilson, and Consul General Mair, who graciously hosted the Honorable Fayval Williams, Jamaica’s Minister of Finance and the Public Service. The session brought together a distinguished panel of Jamaican immigration lawyers, including Hon. Consul for Jamaica K. Omari Fullerton, who provided invaluable insights into current affairs in the USA and Jamaica. Participants engaged in a dynamic discussion, addressing critical issues affecting the diaspora, while fostering a deeper understanding of the legal landscape. The collaboration between diplomatic representatives and legal experts highlighted the importance of community engagement and support in navigating immigration matters.

 

JAN 20 ::::  31st Annual MLK Grande Parade

Members and friends of the Jamaica Foundation of Houston joined us on Monday, January 20, 2025, for the 31st Annual MLK Grande Parade in Midtown, Houston. We braved the cold weather and donned our Jamaican attire for the powerful parade celebration of unity and justice! Thanks to DJ Marcus for the reggae vibes as we marched together, handing out Jamaican flags to cheerful onlookers along the way—celebrating diversity, promoting peace, and paying tribute to the advancements made in the pursuit of equality.

We were happy to honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., who encourages us all to embrace the spirit of community service and social equity.

The Jamaica Foundation of Houston would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Radar Love, LLC for their generous sponsorship of T-shirts for JFH at the 31st Annual MLK Grande Parade in Midtown, Houston. Their support not only enhances our presence at this meaningful event but also demonstrates their commitment to our community and its values.
