Past event: Entrepreneurship and the Diaspora

Recently, the Jamaica Association in Switzerland held an exciting Zoom event on Entrepreneurship and the Diaspora, on April 24. This event, which was aimed at encouraging entrepreneurship in the diaspora, was a celebration of brand Jamaica, Jamaica’s culture and entrepreneurship spirit. A special thank you to everyone who made this event a wonderful success.

 

Past event: Christmas Fundraising and Zoom Telethon

The Jamaica Association in Switzerland recently had its Christmas Fundraising and Zoom Telethon on December 12, 2020. This online event, which was a wonderful time of warmth and fun with the diaspora and friends of Jamaica, was primarily  aimed towards raising funds for the charity Candle in Dark: Shelters for the homeless and mentally challenged in Mandeville, Jamaica. The event, which had as MCs Jamaica’s Dervan Malcom of Power106FM and Claudette ‘CP’ Powell (formerly of Fame95FM in Jamaica), was a celebration of the beauty and culture of Jamaica through poetry, music, dance  and irie vibes. A special thank you to all those who supported this event and worthy cause. One love!

Past event: Annual Independence Day Barbecue, celebrating Jamaica’s independence, held on August 9, 2020 at the lovely Vidy Wind Club in Lausanne.
