THE Jamaica Social Stock Exchange (JSSE) last Wednesday launched an initiative to assist micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) impacted by the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19).
The initiative, named ‘Brother’s Keeper’, is geared at lobbying corporate companies and socially aware individuals to help provide grant funding to the MSME sector.
“Through our Brother’s Keeper initiative, we want you to help us to provide grant funding for organisations whose businesses have been negatively affected. Two of our special projects under this initiative are Teen Challenge Jamaica and Mona-Tech Engineering Services. We invite your collaboration as we work together to support our fellow Jamaicans in this difficult period,” the JSSE said in an e-mail to its 70,000 shareholders.
