Our Foundation

Founded in 2022, myShiylo Foundation Inc is dedicated to students in need by providing essential school supplies. We believe that access to basic educational resources is a fundamental right, not a privilege. Through community partnerships, fundraising initiatives, and supply drives, we strive to make a positive impact in the lives of students and empower them to reach their full potential.

Join us in our vision of a world where every student can pursue their education without the barriers of financial hardship. Together, we can make a difference!

myShiylo Foundation also participates in food and coat drives.

Our Founder

Amanda P. Smith, CEO and Co-Founder of myShiylo Foundation was born in Aurora, Illinois. She always had a love for traveling and a passion for missionary work. Amanda met Kavel Smith in 2013, and it was love at first sight. 8 years later and Shiylo Smith was born, which created more inspiration to form a nonprofit organization in honor of their daughter.

 

Shiylo, commonly spelled as "Shiloh", meaning translates to "Gift from GOD" or "GOD's gift to us", and Shiylo certainly has been a gift, as is every donation is a gift to those in need.

Our Mission

We are on a mission to empower students in Jamaica by providing them with the resources they need to succeed. Through our dedicated efforts, we strive to create a brighter future for the next generation. At myShiylo Foundation Inc., we believe in the power of education to transform lives, and we are passionate about making a difference in the lives of students.
