Who Are We?
Family Fest Barbados exists to strengthen families and encourage healthier homes, stronger relationships and better communities across Barbados.
Our work is guided by a simple but powerful message: Help, Hope, Healing and Happiness.
Family is the foundation
We believe strong families help build strong people, strong communities and a stronger Barbados.
Who are we? +
Family Fest was conceptualized by Cornelius Bartlett after much thought and prayer. After sharing the vision with a group of persons, the Family Fest Committee was formed.
We are a committed group of persons with varying skill sets and resources, dedicated to seeing the family function in the way it was designed by God to function.
What do we believe? +
We believe that the family structure is the foundation of all societies and the training ground for building well-rounded individuals and productive nations.
What is our mission? +
In focusing on the ideal family model, we seek to promote an attitude of zero tolerance towards all forms of violence, sexual abuse, drug use and abuse, crime, corruption and other harmful actions towards our fellow human beings.
What are our goals? +
We hope to transform and restore the family structure by:
- Engaging families within the community.
- Utilising available human resources to meet the social and spiritual needs of all members of the family unit.
- Carefully devising strategic plans and relevant methods to deal with critical recurring issues in our families and in society.
- Ministering to the total human being through impartation, counsel, mentorship and guidance.
- Facilitating social activities such as forums, town hall meetings, fun activities and education in matters relating to family and human development.
