Alacran Foundation

As title sponsor of Jamaica’s Reggae Girlz, we are working to develop and grow women’s football long after the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup. Our partnership with the Jamaica Football Federation is driven by our passion for the development of women’s football in Jamaica.

This partnership was born from the Foundation’s initial sponsorship of the Reggae Girlz, Jamaica’s Senior National Women’s Football Team, in association with the Bob Marley Foundation, ahead of the squad’s first-ever qualification for the FIFA Women’s World Cup in 2018.

The Chris Johnson Fighting Alliance (CJFA) is an initiative led by renowned Jamaican-born boxer Chris Johnson. CJFA’s objective is to provide consistent, healthy practice of the sport by all regardless of sex, age, social background or economic status.

CJFA hosts workshops and training camps to facilitate the development of boxing candidates. These future Jamaican boxers will be trained at an Olympic standard which will allow them to compete on the world stage.

We play an active role in improving the lives of others and use our expertise to encourage economic viability and creativity among people.

Through infrastructural development and improvements, it is the hope of the Foundation that the lives of Portland residents and Jamaica’s tourism product be enhanced through the stimulation and encouragement of economic viability and creativity at this premier local attraction.

We have joined forces with local groups and organisations to better penetrate marginalised communities through new & existing programmes.

A partnership with Ky-Mani Marley through the Bob Marley Foundation which seeks to refurbish the facilities of the Trelawny-based Elleston Wakeland Centre for young talented footballers of the parish to develop their skills and ultimately form a team that will re-enter the football divisional leagues in Jamaica.

The Foundation, in collaboration with our partners, facilitates Christmas Treats within disadvantaged communities. Alacran Foundation’s annual Christmas Treats provide temporary reprieve and uplifts the spirits of the persons who reside in these communities.

In December 2018, approximately 1300 children, adults and seniors from low-income vulnerable communities across Jamaica were feted, entertained and provided with warm meals, care packages and gifts.
