Ron McKay, ADS Global CEO/American Chamber of Commerce Jamaica president, recently presented US$1,000 in scholarships to Supreme Preparatory and Kindergarten in Montego Bay, St James.

McKay's assistance to the institution goes back four years, having been impressed with what he saw from the start. He has given many motivational talks to the students and visited them on the eve of the GSAT examinations to encourage students to do their best.

The scholarship fund benefits two needy students selected by the school, to assist them at grade 7. They receive US$250 each, while US$500 goes to the school's improvement fund. This year's awardees are Santrina Gordon and Andrey Brevette.
