Happy Birthday, Papa Joe!

October 22, 2012greatshapeincUncategorized

Great Shape! Inc. wants to wish Joseph Wright a happy happy birthday! Joseph Wright got his nickname, “Papa Joe”, from the local children while living in rural Jamaican villages. He is an expert in Jamaican culture and fluent in Patois because of all the time that he has spent in Jamaica. Papa Joe is the executive director of Great Shape! Inc. and Director of the 1000 Smiles program in Jamaica, where he educates the local children in dental health.

His hard work and dedication to Great Shape! for 22 years has had an amazing impact on the Jamaican communities and those that he has helped. Thank you, Papa Joe for all that you have done for Great Shape! Inc. We love you!
