Grammy Award-winning music group Morgan Heritage will be holding a one-day music festival dubbed 'iJAM' to help save less privileged children under the age of 5-years who suffer from preventable infections and diseases.

Morgan Heritage is a reggae music group which is made up of Roy 'Gramps' Morgan, Peter 'Peetah' Morgan, and Memmalatel 'Mojo' Morgan, and is known for its unwavering philanthropic and humanitarian ideals.

The one-day festival features international music superstars performing a spectrum of genres including Reggae, Rock, R&B, Soca, Latin, and much more all while bringing awareness through music and maintaining a sound mind, body and soul.

Jambase.com reports that some of the artistes who are billed to perform at the festival to help push this worthy cause include Busy Signal, Less Than Jake, Sailor Jane and Marcia Griffiths among others.

The iJAM Music Festival is scheduled to take place at Orlando’s Tinker Field in the US on Saturday, April 4.

Remaining faithful to their fundamentals, the Morgan Heritage group has woven together their music and principles and orchestrated a musical mission, which is the iJAM Music Festival.

The family-friendly festival will also include international fare, holistic experiences, Health & Wellness purveyors and Clean the World soap education and a Kidz Zone.

To further their mission, The Morgan Heritage Foundation aims to facilitate and create programs that provides a clear path to success for the youth and has partnered with Clean the World, a non-profit, global-health organization committed to improving the quality of life for vulnerable communities around the world through water, sanitation and hygiene for all those affected by poverty, homelessness, and humanitarian or natural crises.

“When Morgan Heritage and Central Florida Deals approached us about being apart of the iJAM Music Festival, we knew immediately that it would be a great fit,” says Shawn Seipler, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Clean the World.

“This festival is an opportunity to raise awareness, build social impact, and serve the community. We are honoured to partner with this talented family group of Grammy award-winning performers to spread love to those in need.”

“Through our partnership, our goal is to bring awareness about Clean the World’s mission to save millions of people with proper hygienic health. By recycling soap and other discarded hygiene products, Clean the World saves lives with items that traditionally end up in landfills,” said Mojo Morgan.
