The Forever Blessed Foundation works together with George Pelgrim
The Forever Blessed Foundation will be active in communities all across St. Maarten for summer 2022. Founded in 2003, by its director Ms. Jenny Peterson, The Forever Blessed Foundation has been collecting food and clothing from businesses, companies, and people in the community to donate to less fortunate people, who don’t have access to public assistance.
According to Ms. Peterson, The Forever Blessed Foundation was started at her home when her son went away to Holland to study, and had lots of clothes that he couldn’t take with him. Her son was a little apprehensive to give away his belongings, even though the clothes probably wouldn’t fit him when he came back from Holland. Jenny told him “one man’s trash is another man’s treasure”, and with some persuasion he finally agreed to let his mother donate his clothing. This would be the beginning of what would become a 20 year career in charitable acts which would later be called The Forever Blessed Foundation.
