friend of Jack and Jill Foundation. Together, we eagerly met our call to action with an unyielding desire to address the issues affecting African American children and families. And, because of you here we are, another step closer to fulfilling our mission, another community closer to realizing our vision and another family closer to sustainable generational impact.

For more than 50 years, Jack and Jill has exceeded the

With fresh perspectives and burning ambition, our students are changing the perception and writing a new narrative of what it means to be a young Black person in America. We are so proud!

This remarkable energy compels us to continue this work – but we cannot do it alone.

Now more than ever, Black voices are being met with attentive admiration and communities of color are rallying the cry of ancestral fortitude to help progress, like our Founders, the calling of the Civil Rights Movement.

Today, our students are excelling across every front. Over the past four years, more than 5,000 children and youth have participated in Foundation STEM programs and we have invested more than $200,000 toward this effort. As we celebrate our more than 800 students preparing for college, we have strengthened our commitment to academic success by establishing the JJ College GAP Fund with a singular, long-term goal of distributing $2 million

It will take a compassionate determination to protect the future of the Black family and see to it that generations to come are not relegated to systems of oppression and hatred but relish in the progress we set forth to make today.

We are excited to enter this next chapter with a thoughtful heart and listening ear to ensure we create a strong foundation for children to thrive long-term. For such a time as this, it is our responsibility to uphold the mantle and, in the words of the late Congressman John Lewis “…get in the way and make some good trouble.”
