Clarendon Man Bridges Gap in Pandemic Despite Struggles

A Clarendon man is impacting several families and lives in his rural community of Vere. Khacy Mohammed who is a taxi driver and carpenter has been inspiring hope through his unregistered charity just under 3 years old. The 33-year-old Clarendon man is giving back despite financial hurdles and his personal setbacks.

Not having a house of his own, and having several mouths to feed, does not prevent him from extending love and kindness to many others. As he is now almost through in completing a house for a single mother whose rental space has been falling apart.

Mohammed stated that after moving to Clarendon after being laid off his job in Negril, he started selling jelly in his community to motivate the youths that they can try to make a better life for themselves and their families.

His OfficialBoss charity movement has served the elderly and under privileged even before the pandemic. He is now partner in charity with popular social media personality, Rawpa Crawpa to give a deserving family of four, all females, a home of their own. He is however limited in his efforts which is driven by crowd funding.
