Jack & Jill Late Stage Cancer Foundation

JAJF, a national 501(c)(3) nonprofit, treats children facing the looming loss of their young Mom or Dad to cancer to WOW! Experiences®...a prescribed timeout as part of treatment protocol together as a family away from their late stage cancer to create positive, cherished, (indispensable) memories…while they can. Featured as the cover story on CBS Sunday Morning, twice featured on the TODAY SHOW, NBC's Sunday Night Football and Sanjay Gupta, JAJF has become exceptionally—even profoundly important nationally because of the lives they are measurably impacting across the United States since 2006. Oncologists prescribe JAJF as part of the treatment protocol for the patient, the spouse and their children…the family together which is extraordinary. Oncologists have validated the medicinal impact JAJF is having in the immediate term and now longer term for these families especially the children who are losing their Dads and Moms at such a vulnerable time. Oncologists validate the power of laughter and smiles--of positive, fun family time together (and the power of beaches, sunsets, sports, music). The POWER OF WOW! As the only organization of its kind serving this overlooked population, there is a need to keep fighting the fight; there is also a need to keep fighting for cherished family time for these young parents who just won’t be saved by the next wonder drug, clinical trial or hope for a cure. JAJF has a mandate to sustain. JAJF is supported by and dependent on individual financial donors, family foundations, grants and corporations who make these prescribed timeouts...these WOW! Experiences® possible. Oncologists and JAJF Donors (Benefactors/Investors) appreciate: Cancer does not just strike the Mom or Dad; it strikes their children as well. These children are at risk also. The smiles and joy family after sweet, young family across the United States is the best way to thank our Benefactors. We prefer to say Investors; the smiles and joy become your ROI.
