This charitable non-profit organisation provides uniforms and scholarships to hospitality students at the T. A. Marryshow Community College, as well food hampers to needy children in the community.

Grenada is known internationally as the isle of spice. The designation isn’t arbitrary but is one rooted in the island’s renowned history of nutmeg and spice production. The smell of spice lingers in the wind and food is more than just a component of life, it is an expression of culture, and patriotism. In Grenada, gatherings occur around a pot and food is celebrated as the glue that binds one and all.
