Those who know me the best understand that I am all about helping wherever I can and Accompong Town offers so many ways to help that don’t require a lot of money. Mystic Bowie, Reggae Singer-Songwriter, is from Accompong Town and he has made it his mission to improve the school system
He formed the Mystic Bowie Cultural Center http://mysticbowieculturalcenter.com/ to raise the collective consciousness of both the citizens of Accompong Town and the world in general on what is needed and how to accomplish it at the same time. Mystic Bowie travels all across the United States giving concerts and most times half of what people pay to attend the concert goes directly to funding the Mystic Bowie Accompong Library
As with any library endeavors, books are needed to fill the shelves. Nicholas Da Silva from www.dreadandalive.com and some of his friends and supporters sent down some books which I was proud and honored to deliver myself to the school’s principal, Mr. Garfield Rowe.

Another project was dubbed “Project Accompong” http://www.dreadandalive.com/causes/project-accompong/ where funds were raised to feed the 35-60 students a nourishing hot breakfast three days a week. Again, I was honored to deliver a month’s worth of funds for this worthy cause.
The Breakfast Program
Mr. Da Silva, a graphic artist-entrepreneur, also donated a silkscreen which the children along with Tayshan Wright screened enough donated tee shirts to give each child who participated in the program a free tee shirt in commemorate the January 6th Celebration of 2014.
