## Resource

Young people in the Caribbean are gaining life-saving skills and culinary expertise thanks to two newly combined summer programs by the Ashley Lashley Foundation—Safe Coast BIM and Cook Caribbean. Backed by a $5,000 donation from Tropical Shipping, these four-week initiatives trained youth in emergency response, drone tech, CPR, first aid, and hospitality arts. Safe Coast BIM, launched this year, empowers teens to become community first responders, with internships lined up at national emergency agencies and the UN. Cook Caribbean fuels career paths in food service and entrepreneurship. The programs ended with high-energy simulations and awards for standout campers, proving that preparedness and passion can grow side by side.
