Southside's St Michael's Infant and Primary School was the recipient of a computer and printer from dancehall artiste Mavado.
The initiative is part of his newly formed charity, Connect Jamaica. This initiative, according to Mavado, will ensure that every school in Jamaica benefits from a computer and printer from his charity.
Commenting on the donation, principal of the institution, Mrs Morrison, said, "The school was in need of a computer for the infants. It was like a God-send when Mavado's representatives contacted us, it couldn't have come at a better time. The little ones will benefit every day from Mavado's generosity. We all thank him very much."
Over the next couple of weeks, three more institutions will be presented with computers and printers. There are also other institutions in the pipeline that will be presented with computers.
Mavado's The Real McKoy birthday bash will be held on December 1 at Temple Hall Estates in St Andrew. Among the artistes who will be performing are Lady Saw, members of the Bounty Killer-led Alliance, Pressure, Munga, Alaine, Fantan Mojah, Jah Cure and Macka Diamond among others. Part proceeds from the staging of the event will go towards purchasing computers for schools across Jamaica.
