Shaggy & Friends charity concert raises $32 million for Bustamante Hospital for Children!
The third installment of the Shaggy & Friends charity concert for the Bustamante Hospital for Children raised $32 million (JMD) for the Bustamante Hospital for Children in St Andrew, Jamaica!

Shaggy says: “I am heartened by the outpouring of support this year by so many Jamaicans and I pledge to continue to support this cause and encourage Jamaicans to do so as well!” Watch a video of the press conference below thanks to the Jamaica Observer, or check the photos on Caribbean Celebs
