Our Mission as a Caribbean nonprofit is to help uplift and sustain the youth of Jamaica. Our missionary roots on the island go back almost 200 years. The Burchell Youth Development Foundation is carrying on a tradition of supporting the educational and spiritual needs of Jamaica youth as these young people strive to succeed in a challenging socio-economic environment.
