Lawless KiiDs is an organization run by a group of intelligent, energetic teens
who have the same interests-serving others. “Lawless KiiDs” was created as a
subdivision of the events planning group Lawless Events to encourage and create
an avenue for youth getting involved in charitable events from an early age.
The main objective of the group The Lawless Kiids is to a great extent focus on
strategies to remedy that problem and to open doors for the less fortunate.
• The Lawless KiiDs initiated their plan of action on March 19th 2010 with
their Launch Party/Pre Championship event called Velocity held at the YMCA
auditorium. The party started at 3pm and ended at 10pm. For our first event, we
were delighted to see that there was a large number of persons who attended.
The admission was set to $200 or free with a non-perishable food item (can). We
collect 300 cans which were distributed to different children’s home and youth
on the street and a sum of $100,000 was donated to the YMCA. An issue of our
donation to the YMCA was published in the Jamaica Observer on Tuesday, April
20, 2010.
• Next on our calendar for the year was a home visit as a part of our Labour
Day project scheduled for May 24. This plan was not fulfilled due to the
uprising in Western Kingston. We had hoped to go to a children’s home to offer
assistance in anyway possible. This is still on our agenda.
• The Lawless Kiids then had their second event a month later called Soprano.
Due to inclement weather number of persons we expected to attend did not and as
a result we made a loss and so no donation was made.
In the summer of 2011, We have orchestrated a series of events to help us to
better fulfill our mandate. The Lawless KiiDs have orchestrated a strategy to
better fulfill our mandate. Starting Saturday June 25th and every Saturday
until July 30 we will be having Donation Drives at Devonshire, Devon House from
1pm to 4pm.
We'll be accepting anything that can be donated: food, clothes, toys, books etc.
We've decided to make it a month long event in order to obtain as much items as
possible. We will distribute the donations to homes and orphanages across the
island during the month of August.
