    Manchester father puts family house up for sale to send daughter to medical school
    Desperate dad

    Georgia and her proud dad George Lindsay at their New Forest home in Manchester last Friday.

    A Manchester father, desperate to raise $1 million to send his daughter to medical school in China, has put his family house up for sale, saying that he would do anything to prevent her from experiencing the hardships he endured growing up.

    "Is because it never sell at the time why you come here and see it now," George Lindsay told the Jamaica Observer on Friday.

    "I put up the sign out at the front of the road and quite a few people came and look at it. But I never had the registered title. If I had the registered title, I would be a happy man, because it would have been sold and her schooling taken care of," he said.

    "When I told people I was selling my house and sending her to school they told me they would not do it, because pickney may not turn 'roun and look back on them. But I said 'how would you know? I will run the risk'. And it is still up for sale," he insisted

    Georgia Lindsay with her dad George and her sister Geonna at the Norman Manley International Airport in Kingston yesterday before leaving for China to study medicine.

    GEORGE Lindsay, the Manchester father who was last week set on selling his house in order to help fund his daughter's dream of studying medicine in China, yesterday saw her off at the Norman Manley International Airport in Kingston, thanks to Jamaica Observer readers, here and abroad, who were touched by his story.

    Easily, the largest donation he received was from the mother of a prominent Jamaican businessman who paid the $1 million required for the first year.

    The woman, who wished to remain anonymous, met the family in Mandeville last Wednesday and paid the sum over to the university through their account.
