OUR FOREVER INSPIRATION

The Jessie Rees Foundation was, and always will be, inspired by one courageous and compassionate 12 year old little girl. Her name, Jessica Joy Rees, better known as “Jessie.” Jessie was a faith-filled, beautiful, athletic, caring and loving girl who courageously fought cancer (DIPG) from March 3, 2011 to January 5, 2012. She loved her family very much and her puppy Mr. Moe. Jessie created JoyJars® and was the first one to coin the term “NEGU®”, which was her motto and message to everyone to Never Ever Give Up. Jessie’s Wish is the mission of her foundation.
