"To be recognized, it shows you that the work hasn't been in vain," says reggae star Gramps Morgan, who was this week given Jamaica's Governor General's Achievement Award for 2024.
The award, handed out at the 10th Biennial Jamaica Diaspora Conference, recognizes philanthropic work in the areas of health care, education, and community development, the Jamaica Observer reports.
Morgan, who still has deep ties to his homeland despite living in the US for a number of years, has worked with the Mary Issa Paediatric and Adolescent Health Center in St Ann.
"A woman must can have a baby in peace; and a child, if they get sick, must can be able to get to the hospital and get proper health care," he says.
"It was a small gesture but knowing that parents can take their children to the hospital, that's important."
