The Lynne Mitchell Foundation is dedicated to empowering dreams and transforming lives by providing scholarships for higher education, including university and postgraduate degrees. Our mission is to break financial barriers and expand opportunities for talented Jamaican students.
By offering meaningful financial support, we aim to open doors for bright young minds who may not otherwise have the chance to pursue their aspirations.
We believe in investing in the future of Jamaica by nurturing and equipping the next generation of leaders, innovators and change makers with the resources they need to realize their dreams.
Empowering Dreams. Transforming Lives
Our Mission
How It Started
Founded in 2012, we dedicated our efforts to uplifting communities in and around Southfield, St. Elizabeth, Jamaica. Our charitable initiatives provided essential support through scholarships, meals, transportation, school uniforms, and supplies. Central to our mission was Seaview Primary School—a one-room schoolhouse that has been a pillar of this rural community since 1959, and where Lynne Mitchell once shared her passion for teaching. Through our work, we strived to empower every student and strengthen the educational foundation of the entire community.
How Its Going
In 2023, we evolved our approach by launching a scholarship program, extending financial support to eligible students across Jamaica. This shift reflects our unwavering commitment to empowering the next generation and ensuring they have access to quality education. Since then, we have awarded scholarships to 127 outstanding Jamaican students selected for their remarkable academic achievements, dedication to their communities, and unwavering commitment to creating a positive impact on the world.
Our Scholarships
The Lynne Mitchell Foundation is committed to removing barriers to higher education for outstanding Jamaican students. Through our programs - Memorial Scholarships, Aspire Jamaica Scholarships, Aspire International Scholarships, and Donor Named Scholarships - we provide life-changing support to students pursuing college and university degrees at home and abroad.
