The JWN Foundation was pleased to partner with the Book Industry Association of Jamaica (BIAJ), which is one of the leading non-profit organizations working to promote reading and literacy as tools of personal transformation, national development and the protection and promotion of our history and culture. We sponsored the opening reception of the fifth staging of the Kingston Book Festival (KBF) from March 4-11, 2018. The festival was an amazing success. Like the BIAJ, we share the belief in the transformational power of literacy and reading to change lives, communities and the world.
