On Friday, December 29, Damion Lowe, the vice-captain of Jamaica's national senior football team, organized a Christmas treat for the children of Rockfort, East Kingston.
More than 200 children received gifts and enjoyed the amusement rides at the Rockfort Football Field. Lowe was joined by his father, Onandi Lowe, a legend of the 1998 World Cup squad.
The initiative took place in the community where both men grew up and started their football careers. There was also a football competition featuring local teams and showcasing young talents for players within the community.
"I've been here for many years growing up in the community, and I've seen plenty of people do this here, and now I have the resources and the hands to do it, so this is year three. It's a good initiative for East Kingston, and I want to thank Marc Effron and Legacy Healing Centre for making it possible this year," said Lowe.
