True Blue Bay Boutique Resort - Pack for a Purpose

Visiting orphanages

Pack for a Purpose does not condone visiting orphanages, as this can often lead to negative impacts on children. The accommodation or tour company working with the orphanage will deliver the supplies in a coordinated and respectful way so that the children can benefit from them. Your generosity is not diminished because you do not interact with the children.

Project Description

The Vendome Primary School serves 100 children from ages 6 through 12 years old. It was badly damaged by Hurricane Ivan and the students would greatly benefit from the supplies requested below. True Blue owner Russ Fielden voluntarily teaches a course on hospitality and tourism for the benefit of the local community once per week at the school.
