PSOJ Believes That Effects Of COVID-19 Will Last 6-9 Months

We continue our discussion of leadership during the outbreak of COVID-19 this time with a focus on the private sector and the efforts of the private sector organization of Jamaica attempts to raise $250m through donations from individuals and corporations for the provision of food security and health services.

The effort is called the “PSOJ COVID-19 Jamaica Response Fund” and it follows an earlier donation of $150m to purchase ventilators.

To discuss the efforts of the umbrella group we are joined by the president of the Private Sector Organization of Jamaica ( PSOJ ), Keith Duncan and Saffrey Brown Chairperson for the Council of Voluntary Social Services (CVSS).
