Executive Director Joe Wright and Board Member Kate Wasserman were thrilled on Wednesday to be a part of the Sandals Foundation Launch! Sandals really rolled out the red carpet for this event which was held at Sandals Cay, part of the Sandals Royal Caribbean Hotel property in Montego Bay, St. James. Attendees were then taken by boat to a private island.

A couple hundred people were there, including travel experts, international media, and the founder of Sandal Resorts Gordon Stewart. The event also boasted some great speakers; CEO of Sandals Adam Stewart, Jamaican Prime Minister Bruce Golding, the President of Sesame Street, and the President of American Airlines all spoke.

We were so honored to be included in the festivities, and cannot express how thankful we are to have such a wonderful partnership with Sandals Resorts International! Our fall projects, 1000 Smiles and SuperKids, would not be possible without the generosity of Sandal Resorts which hosts our volunteers for free. Many thanks Sandals!
