    Another excellent organization with whom to leave donations is the Negril Rotary. I had the pleasure of attending one of their meetings in July (Negril Escape, 6:30 on Thursday evenings). This group does amazing things, including funding scholarships for those 18+ who can swim and read - advanced lifeguard training - which can lead to a rewarding career on an island such as Jamaica. I was amazed at the number of people who attended and are a regular part of the Rotary, and by the wide array of programs supported and funded - for Jamaicans. Please consider donating to this group. They know the ins and outs of donations and the best repository for them. http://7020.org/clubInfo/negril

    That settles it. Next time I take the One Love Bus (again), I will give extra money to Lenbert, over and above his normal "tip", to let him be my "organization" that I donate to so he can support the kids as he sees fit. I love his idea of donating musical instruments, but USD's fit better in my suitcase than a saxophone, so I will just make a cash donation instead!

    I think Lenbert's heart is in the right place.
