Providing Unlimited Educational Opportunities
CATALYST makes the news in Jamaican media
. . . The programme helps students in several ways. They help the needy with school fees and train mentors. They also donated several books to the Homework Centre's library on Tower Street. But most of all what the programme seeks to do each year is prepare students for tertiary education and help them find scholarships . . .

He is a straight 'A' student who wants to be a computer engineer. The help from Catalyst is making that dream seem possible . . .

I left with only a small suitcase, a scholarship letter and one hundred and thirteen dollars. I am from a small rural community in Jamaica, where only those with the financial capabilities are given the opportunities to succeed. Most young people in my community never made it beyond High School and even when they did they were destined for a life of poverty . . .
