SUGAR CANE BALL
Round Hill, located in the Hanover Parish, has been a major supporter of the Hanover Charities with its annual Sugar Cane Ball every February since 1957 when the charity was founded. Hanover Charities plays a major role in the Parish and covers a wide range of projects for its citizens from very young to old. Funds generated from the weekend’s events will go towards the foundation’s several initiatives including implementing programs aimed to strengthen reading and computer skills in communities, funding soup kitchens and health clinics, supplying basic necessities to the disabled and elderly and contributing scholarships to local deserving students.
Last year, a record-breaking 340 participants including socialites, ambassadors, celebrities, and business leaders from the United States, Europe and Jamaica raised nearly $200,000 for the Hanover Charities.
