Recently, some Board members and volunteers of the Jamaica Cultural Alliance (JCA) met for lunch at Janga by Derrick’s Jamaican Cuisine in Culver City. The luncheon was to show appreciation to our volunteers whose contributions are essential to the achievement of JCA’s mission. JCA endeavors to build bridges between the many cultures and ethnicities represented in Southern California, inspired by Jamaica’s National Motto “Out of Many One People.”
