The Jessie Rees Foundation is committed to five core programs that provide resources, services 
and support to help children with cancer. Our goal is to provide sustained support and resources to the 46 children who will told they have cancer today. In 2012, the Jessie Rees Foundation was able to reach 50,000 children with cancer around the world through the delivery of Jessie’s JoyJars and the “I’m a NEGU Kid” campaign. In 2013, the NEGU Power Packs were released and are now available to children with cancer, at no financial obligation (thanks to our wonderful donors and supporters). Jessie’s JoyJars have been delivered to over 200 children’s hospitals in the US and 15 international children’s hospitals.
In 2013, the Jessie Rees Foundation launched the NEGU Support Network which lists over 600 service providers who work with children with cancer and their families.
The support of local communities is truly the lifeline that provides the sustained support to families and children with cancer. From schools and club-hosted Joy Drives to corporate volunteer initiatives, the opportunities to help care for children with cancer are endless. We have a large compassionate community of dedicated individuals wanting to help. These grassroots efforts will empower thousands of people in our communities to Never Ever Give Up for children with cancer.
We are so honored to have received the support of amazing celebrities such as Carrie Underwood, Slash, Linda Cohn, Nick Lachey, Jeff Probst, Wilmer Valderrama, Jimmie Johnson, Eva Longoria, Chuck Norris, Ellen Degeneres and so many more. We also have an amazing line-up of professional athlete supporters including Clay Matthews, Matt Leinart, DeMarco Murray, Jordan Palmer and Jake Ellenberger to name a few.
With the help of our compassionate sponsors-UPS, Anthem Blue Cross, Life Technologies, Clear Channel, Applied Medical, Cox Communications, MFS, Triple A, Go Rentals, Trailer Park and so many more, we are on track to serve more kids fighting cancer. Together we can fulfill Jessie’s wish of encouraging all kids fighting cancer to Never Ever Give Up.
