Since 2016, Love Hands Foundation, through Dr. Jermaine Gordon’s efforts, has been delivering the life-saving intervention, trauma and violence prevention tools and supplies to both government and privately owned child care facilities across Jamaica. This program is called: Inspiring Our Future 360 Degrees. We have impacted hundreds of schools, many communities and churches; we are one of Jamaica’s largest distributor of donated success tools and kits —touching the lives of children, those who serve them and families in more than 130 communities.  

When we are not speaking, telling stories and using music and art therapy with the children and at-risk youths, we empower their teachers, parents, peers and those who serve and interact with them. We have invested many hours into researching the nation’s most severe and life-threatening issues and many more hours finding solutions through the process of design thinking.

Our ‘Success Clinics’ consist of visits to homes and communities, and through a unique combination of art, music, science and faith, we effect the life-changing behaviours so desperately needed in many of our communities and homes. Our visits also includes the issuing of success packages at the cost of US$25 per child or recipient. 

We work to prevent violence and trauma that impacts children and communities. Each year, hundreds of volunteers and the core professional team travel with Love Has Hands to provide resources needed to deal with emotional, behavioural, mental and spiritual issues as a treatment to families and communities in need. We are dedicated to serving our communities and our country.

Listed in our mandate are the over thirty-eight national issues such as: anger, unforgiveness, fear of learning, greed, not resolving our conflicts amicably, violence, crime, lawlessness, fear of other people’s success, lack of respect and talks that incite violence against each other. We also work alongside guidance counsellors, social workers, psychologists, pastors and victim support experts in treating victims of abuse, trauma and other natural disasters as well as societal crises.

Dr. Jermaine Gordon has mainly sponsored our programs. However, we are now actively seeking funding by grants from the government, non-governmental organizations (N.G.O.s) from the generous support of philanthropic foundations, corporate partners and individual donors from all walks of life. 

It followed a heart-breaking experience where a 14-year-old schoolboy was fatally stabbed over his phone on the public bus as he made his way home. In response, Dr. Jermaine Gordon quit his professional job and has since been working to prevent violence and trauma that impacts children and communities across Jamaica. 

We are proud to say that we are rated as one of the top intervention programmes in Jamaica, with outstanding short-term to long-term outcomes though not yet officially recognized.

At the heart of Love Has Hands are people like you who are willing to get involved. 

Together we can change the world!
