Dr. Hilliard: “The Rotary Race to Literacy truly represents the kind of response that Jamaica’s youth need. We are very excited to support this effort. Our colleagues at the embassy are overseeing continued book donations. I will be donating a book from my own collection, as will members of my team, and USAID/Jamaica will contribute US$2,000 to purchase books from a local supplier. From our perspective the Race to Literacy comes at an ideal time.”
