Upcoming Event
Fortis Annual Reunion & Awards Banquet (2024)
This year is a very special year for us as we celebrate the “99” year of the founding of Kingston College, Jamaica (“KC”).
We’ll be returning to the elegant Peter and Paul Banquet Hall, in Toronto, on Saturday, November 2nd. For dinner, we’ll be treated to a mouth-watering scrumptious taste of Jamaican cuisine.
Entertainment will be provided by Comedian/MC, Dwight “Barrelman’ Ross, who I’m sure will have us laughing throughout the evening. DJ Barbican will serve up hits from the 80s, 90s, and 2000s…that will have us on our feet dancing all night long.
At this year’s event, we’ll be honouring the Jerome Henry Foundation for its tremendous work in the community in supporting youth education. We’ll also be granting the Maurice MacDonald scholarship to a well deserving student.
Like most secondary educational institutions in Jamaica, government funding and parents’ financial contributions do not meet the full academic and extracurricular operational needs of the school. Therefore, but for the support of the KCOB fraternity, and supporters generally, organizing activities like these to raise the much-needed funds to fill the gaps in funding, KC would not be able to maintain its standing as one of the preeminent secondary schools in Jamaica and the Caribbean.
The proceeds from this event will help fund the school’s welfare programs, infrastructure upgrades, secondary and post-secondary scholarships for qualified students, and centenary legacy projects, just to name a few.
We look forward to seeing you and thank you for your support.
Fortis Forever, Forever Fortis!
