Donate to Jonathan Morgan's Run
Bonita Morgan with Jonathan Morgan
Jonathan Morgan, son of Bonita Moran, former Director of Human Resources at the CTO, will be running a mile every hour for 24 hours to raise funds for the Bonita Morgan Memorial Scholarship in association with the Caribbean Tourism Organization (CTO).
In April 2018, Bonita Morgan lost her fight with cancer, which was a huge blow for the family as she passed away at the early age of 61. In recognition of her successful tenure of over 20 years, first as the Head of Human Resources at CTO, and later on her significant contribution as the CTO Director of Resource Mobilisation and Development, the CTO Scholarship Foundation (http://www.ctofoundation.org/) created a scholarship in her name in 2019, so that her legacy can live on helping individuals throughout the Caribbean.
However, times have been quite difficult, and funding that would have helped more individuals in the Caribbean have run low. Therefore, for Jonathan's run on Saturday, May 28, 2022, the goal is to raise USD$2,000 ahead of the announcement of the 2022 scholarship awardees. The challenge...run 1 mile on the hour for 24 hours.
