Nature Preservation Foundation To Benefit From Initiative For Hope Zoo

"[Michelle] Jackson, proprietor of Boy O Boy children's boutique on Merrick Avenue in Kingston, ...has initiated a not-for-profit drive — Hope-for-Hope — with the intention of offering long-term assistance to the Hope Zoo."

"...the proceeds of [sales of specially designed clothing items]...will go to the Nature Preservation Foundation (NPF), operators of Hope Gardens."

""They have given us their blessings," said Jackson, whose Hope-for-Hope programme is administered by a committee of like-minded professionals."

"However, the Hope-for-Hope programme has a greater mandate than providing funding. According to Jackson, it will also facilitate the procurement, importation and care of animals for the zoo."

"The intention of the programme, Jackson told Observer reporters and editors, is to facilitate the services of veterinarians and other services to provide sustainable support for the zoo."
