Shine a light this summer!
Let’s Reach 10,000 Acts of Joy  for Kids Fighting Cancer.

Join the Summer of Joy challenge and help us reach our goal of 10,000 acts of Joy for kids fighting cancer! Whether you’re teaming up with coworkers, rallying your community, or creating special moments with your family, every act makes a difference. These kids are fighting big battles — and your kindness reminds them they’re never alone.

At the Jessie Rees Foundation, we’ve created fun and meaningful ways for you to get involved all summer long.
