Cancer Fighter Gifts

Happy Mother’s Day to all of our wonderful and amazing moms! We hope you have a very special JOY-FILLED DAY!

12-year old Jessie Rees courageously fought two inoperable brain tumors for 10 months.  During her fight, she founded JoyJars as a way to help encourage other courageous kids fighting cancer to NEGU- Never Ever Give up and to let them know that they were supported and loved. JoyJars are plastic-filled jars filled to the rim with hospital-approved toys and are sent to children fighting cancer around the world. To-date, over 50,000 children have received Jessie’s JoyJars.

Currently, 46 children every day are told they have cancer. We lose a child to cancer every 4 hours. There are currently over 250,000 children fighting cancer around the world. All of these children need to be encouraged and to know that they are not alone. Will you join us in encouraging all children fighting cancer to NEGU- Never Ever Give Up?
