Two Decades of Making Memories
Thousands of smiles and two decades ago, we said: The Smiles Say It All.
They still do.
At the Jack & Jill Late Stage Cancer Foundation, those smiles are the heartbeat of our mission. When a parent receives a terminal diagnosis, the world often stops but the clock starts ticking. Our mission is to treat families to WOW! Experiences, giving children who will lose their Mom or Dad to cancer a timeout to create indispensable memories as a family... while they can.
Family-Centric Cancer Care
Over the past two decades, JAJF has popularized a vital approach: Family-Centric Cancer Care. It is extraordinary that Oncologists across the country now prescribe JAJF as a formal part of the treatment protocol. They recognize that while medicine treats the patient, memories treat the family.
Celebrating a Lasting Legacy
Sadly, cancer research is not putting JAJF out of business. Because cancer does not stop; nor will JAJF! As we celebrate our 20th anniversary, we remain committed to the highest standards, including our annual recognition as a four-star charity by Charity Navigator. Since 2020, JAJF has maintained its four-star rating—Charity Navigator's highest level of distinction, reflecting our dedication to transparency, responsiblity, and operational efficiency.
Why Your Support is Vital
The sheer joy shared by family after precious family is the best way for us to say THANK YOU to our Benefactors—our Investors. We use the term "Investors" because there is a clear ROI in the lives of these children. As we celebrate 20 years, join us as we continue to provide the gift of time and memories to those who need it most.
