Who We Are

World Class Jamaica (WCJ) is a Registered Canadian charity that is facilitating change in the world by empowering  youth through education. Led by change-makers in Toronto and Jamaica that make up the organization’s Board of Directors , World Class Jamaica has implemented best practices from around the globe to co-create community-led social change in regions of Jamaica.

​

WCJ believes equitable access to quality education is a human right for all people. This is why we seek to eradicate social and economic barriers to education for children and youth, through community-led initiatives that holistically assess, repair and revitalize local communities to give children an opportunity to achieve their full potential.

​

In partnership with local educators and community leaders, we help children find their voice, nurture their well-being and cultivate scholastic success, because educated children empower communities and can change the world.
