Popular American TV host and comedian, Steve Harvey has stepped up to help bridge the digital divide for thousands of Jamaican children through a $15,000 USD donation to the Connect A Child initiative.
The Connect a Child initiative is a collaborative effort of the Private Sector Organisation of Jamaica, NCB Foundation, Jamaica Social Stock Exchange, National Education Trust and Junior Achievement Jamaica to support the Ministry of Education, Youth and Information’s One Laptop or Tablet per Child Initiative.
This donation by The Steve and Marjorie Harvey Foundation will help to purchase 100 tablets for Jamaican children who are unable to access virtual classes due to a lack of remote learning devices.
