Donation by Lucas and Ethan Jonas

On 17 May 2012, Lucas and Ethan Jonas, 9 and 6 year old Marian Academy students, presented a donation of $117,000 to assist Help & Shelter in its work against violence in the home.

Lucas and Ethan raised the money from the sale of their DVD collection and by then persuading both Digicel CEO Gregory Dean and their father to match their proceeds.

The funds will be used to reprint child abuse posters developed under Help & Shelter’s recently concluded child protection project.
