The Mable Gaskin Charitable Foundation

From Servitude to Celebrated to Giving Back

THE SWEET SUGARFROM THE CANE

Who are we?

The Mable Gaskin Charitable Foundation was founded and established in 2025 as a private family foundation focused exclusively on the sustainability of the community. The foundation was inspired by Mable Gaskin, the matriarch of the family, who was a woman of deep compassion and opened both her heart and her home to the Drax Hall Jump Community in Barbados. This foundation was created to carry on her legacy by continuing to support and give back to her beloved community.

OBJECTIVES
The objective of the Foundation are:

  1. To bring hope, compassion, empathy, and goodwill to individuals to empower them to improve their circumstances; and
  2. To enhance the capacity of community members who face significant challenges resulting from life-altering events,    including but not limited to property loss, natural disasters,  and health issues.

Vision Statement
”To build hope, compassion, empathy and goodwill in the community, during times of economic uncertainty, which is a reality faced in all Barbadian homes. The Foundation hopes to inspire others to give back and promote the point that the charity is about community”.

 

Based in Barbados W.I.
