Beenie Man Donates to His Former School, Pembroke Hall High: 70 Students Assisted
Beenie Man is the latest among a host of entertainers who have given back to students at the start of the new school term. Two weeks after classes resumed, the ‘King of the Dancehall’ is seen blessing 70 students at the Pembroke Hall High School located in St. Andrew.
The initiative was carried out by The Beenie Man Foundation, a charitable organisation that is focused on Education, Entrepreneurship, and Youth Mentorship.
The footage was shared on his Instagram page Tuesday night, showing the activities. The deejay and his team which consisted of several of his family members including his wife and kids handed over the items.
During the proceedings, Beenie Man interacted with several of the students especially the ones who had speech impediments like himself. Beenie Man also made a song via freestyle on the spot while talking to the children.
Beenie Man recalled partnering with the school’s choir and being a former student of the school.
Funds given to selected students was transferred to the student’s account to help pay for school fees, and vouchers were also handed out.
The caption for the post reads, “Empowering the next generation! @beeniemanfdnja generously donated school fees and vouchers for 70 students at Pembroke Hall High School.”
The statement continues, “We are investing in the future and ensuring every child has the opportunity to succeed! 📚#SupportOurYouth #educationmatters #kingstonbookshop.”
In the shared video, Beenie Man highlighted that he will be visiting two other schools, to assist with back to school, the Tarrant High School and Penwood High School.
