The Jamaica Social Investment Fund (JSIF) is a limited liability company incorporated under The Companies Act of Jamaica. It was established in 1996 as a component of the Government of Jamaica’s (GoJ's) national poverty alleviation strategy and is funded by the GoJ and international donors. JSIF was designed primarily to channel resources to small-scale community based projects, but over the years projects have grown in scale and complexity in response to national development priorities. It leads a number of community renewal programs in tandem with other development partners.
