Buju Banton Doing Great works through his foundation

Written by on March 16, 2023

Buju Banton has connected with the Sunbeam, and Mt.Olivet Boys Homes in Jamaica. The Sunbeam boys home cares for more than 60 boys. The connection was made a couple of years ago when Buju visited the Sunbeam Boys Home. After many discussions, he committed to supporting the boys home so they can do social enterprise.

Soon after he entered the JCDC song competition, and won. His prize money of 3 Million JMD was given to the Sunbeam Boys Home through the Buju Banton Foundation.

The Buju Banton Foundation provides skills training and educational opportunities for youth. With immense emphasis on at risk males, ages 8-18. Its aim and objectives are to provide mentoring and training for young men in depressed communities and childcare facilities. Encouraging them to put down all negative influences and take up skills and tools that would enable them to attain personal, academic and professional growth. So they could become positive contributors to society.

With the help of Kanye West the foundation was able to provide computers not only to the Sunbeam boys home, but he was able to provide computers to the Mt.Olivet boys home also. Buju was able to also provide Soccer sneakers through Puma.

It’s not only monetary support that the boys receive, they are also provided with plenty of various workshops on topics that can help them shape their futures with a positive structure.
