FALMOUTH, Trelawny — The Trelawny Municipal Corporation (TMC) is gearing up to host its second annual 5K run/walk event on November 23, aiming to raise funds to support the parish’s homeless population. Notably, the proceeds from last year’s inaugural event remain untouched due to the suspension of a planned chicken-rearing project at the homeless center, following concerns raised by the health department regarding potential risks. This year’s funds will be combined with last year’s to finance a new, yet-to-be-determined initiative for the shelter. The event is organized by the TMC’s Poor Relief Department and Disaster Management unit. Mayor of Falmouth, Councillor C Junior Gager, enthusiastically encouraged widespread participation during a recent TMC meeting, highlighting strong private sector support. One company has pledged full staff participation, underscoring the community’s commitment. Registration fees are set at $2,000 for adults and $1,000 for children, with all proceeds directly benefiting the homeless community.
