As a charity, I AM IN ME is primarily funded by grants from Trusts and Foundations, allowing us to deliver our services where they are needed most. Our work provides a vital lifeline for young people — giving them a voice and access to impartial mentoring that helps them navigate personal challenges and build confidence for the future.
We’ve witnessed incredible transformations: young people overcoming disadvantage, discovering motivation, and laying strong foundations for their education and career goals. What unites them all is a positive, forward-thinking mindset that inspires lasting change.
What makes us unique is our long-term commitment. We understand that real change takes time — there are no quick fixes. Our programmes are designed to create meaningful impact that endures for years to come.
Your support helps us continue this vital work. Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference. Thank you sincerely for standing with us and helping young people build brighter futures.
Join us in Rebuilding St. Elizabeth, JAMAICA — one family, one home, one community at a time.
Hello, my name is Sasha Gay Smith, and I am the founder of I AM IN ME charity, that has been supporting young people and families in London for the past ten years. My journey in the voluntary sector spans more than seventeen years — but my story began in St. Elizabeth, Jamaica, the place I was born and raised.
My heart is heavy. The devastation caused by Hurricane Melisa has left many families in Jamaica struggling to rebuild their lives. Homes have been destroyed, livelihoods lost, and once-thriving communities are now facing unimaginable hardship.
Appeal! – Help Rebuild Jamaica’s Breadbasket – Restore Hope in St. Elizabeth.
St. Elizabeth, known as the breadbasket of Jamaica, is home to the hardworking farming communities that the entire country depends on for fresh produce — now they urgently need our help to rebuild and recover.
Every donation, no matter the size, will go directly towards helping local families recover and rebuild. Your support will provide essential materials, resources, and hope to those who have lost so much.
Please donate via our JustGiving page and include the message “JAMAICA Appeal” as your reference. Every penny will be tracked and used transparently, ensuring your kindness makes a real and lasting impact.
Together, we can help restore Hope, Rebuild lives, and Renew the Jamaica we love. Thank you so much for your generosity!
