Will To Live Jamaica Foundation

Will To Live Jamaica Foundation is a ministry oriented, faith- based, non- profit, suicide- prevention organization. It was founded (and is based) in Jamaica on December 18, 2017, by Shaniese Laylor- Bogle due to her continuous passion to advocate for mental health awareness. The foundation seeks to ignite faith, hope, ground- breaking determination, and a burning desire in people to live purposeful lives for as long as they can. The foundation currently consists of six (6) team members, two of whom are trained counselors.
The team works extremely hard to connect to the hearts of the Jamaican people, to counsel, mentor, inspire, nurture broken, hurting, and hopeless individuals. The foundation also provides free, telephone- based/ virtual counselling. It provides avenues for the public to be educated about mental health and suicide prevention strategies, via annual seminars and the media. Will To Live Jamaica Foundation assists students in need, so as to lessen poor attendance to school. The organization also assists community members in need via annual projects, and it provides emotional and spiritual support for stressed, depressed, overwhelmed, and suicidal persons.
