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. She created JoyJars® and was the first one to coin the term “NEGU®”, which was her motto and message to everyone.   Jessie had one “wish”, which is the mission of her foundation.

Financial support for Courageous Families during the holidays

Every dollar you give will go straight to a Courageous Family impacted by childhood cancer.  There is nothing quite like hearing from families across the country who tell us what a much-needed holiday boost of $1,000 has done for their family.  Some will use it to make sure there are a few packages under the tree, others will use it to help make ends meet. However it is used, we know your gift is yet another reason these families will feel supported, not alone, and able to create treasured memories during their heart-wrenching fight with cancer this holiday season.  

“We received the check today and I just want to extend a heartfelt thank you. I lost my job and things are so very stressful to say the least. This check will allow me to spend a bit on the kids for Christmas and help with a bill as well. Thank you for your kindness and generosity during this difficult time!” ~Courageous Mom
