DJ Zacky brings Christmas cheer to Stony Hill Primary
Within the span of four years DJ Zacky has emerged as one of the most in-demand disc jocks on the teenage party landscape.
The 17-year-old, who is presently a first-year business administration student at the University of Technology, Jamaica (UTech) decided to spread some Christmas cheer to students at Stony Hill Primary School.
Last week, armed with gifts and school supplies, DJ Zacky and his team (Zision Entertainment) spent some time with students while bringing smiles to the faces of the young ones.
“I am incredibly grateful for the constant support I receive from my family, friends, and the team that stands behind me. Their encouragement has been a driving force in helping me to pursue my passion for music and connecting with others. This journey has shown me the importance of community, and I believe in using my platform to make a positive impact on the lives of those around me,” DJ Zacky, real name Zack Foster, told the Jamaica Observer on the weekend.
Said DJ Zacky: “I feel grateful to have the opportunity to give back to the community, especially by ensuring that every child experiences the joy of Christmas. Whether it’s through hosting events, donating gifts, or creating special moments, I want to spread happiness during this festive season. Beyond that, I am committed to improving the learning environment for young minds, knowing that education shapes their future. Giving back allows me to share my blessings and inspire others to do the same. Lastly, I would like to thank everyone who came on board and made this possible.”
A year ago, DJ Zacky made his first philanthropic effort when he donated $150,000 to McLaughlin Basic School. He shared why he chose to give back to the Stony Hill Primary School this year.
“I heard about the school around a year ago and I just immediately found a connection with them and the children there. I also love how welcoming they are. I have always been very grateful for my success and in the season of Christmas I feel like every child should get the opportunity to smile and have a moment to remember,” DJ Zacky explained.
Aside from gifts and treats for the children, school supplies were also given, while bounce houses were added as extra fun for the children. Minor repairs to the institution were also done.
