Additionally, I was told by Father Jim several years ago that the fastest way to send funds to him is to do it thru the Franciscan website and specify for Mary Heavens Gate and Father Jim.

I sent Amazon Fire 7 tablets to the Negril Education Environment Trust’s NEET) tablet program 2 weeks ago. They have a tablet program for children that meet at Travellers Beach Resort, Negril. I sent the tablets to NEET c/o Dennis Shipping Co. 1124 Utica Ave., Brooklyn, NY 11203. They ship barrels of goods to NEET.

Yes, the link is https://www.stanthony.org/donate-to-franciscans/. You can do a one-time donation or set up a recurring donation, using either a credit card or PayPal. In the Comments box, specify Negril. Father Jim's Get Kids to School program and the St. Anthony's soup kitchen in Negril are both ongoing programs that make effective use of recurring donations. With many of the charities that you hear from all the time, too much of your money goes to administrative costs, high salaries and benefits for the executives, and additional fundraising. With Father Jim's programs, everything you send is spent on those who need it.

If your own finances have not been adversely affected by COVID, when you get government relief money or tax refunds, it's a good time to make a donation, as that money is probably not in your monthly budget and earmarked for a specific purpose.
