After 12 years of providing scholarships to those impacted by leukemia or lymphoma, JSSF has made the difficult decision to end our scholarship program. We wish only the best for all of the kids we were able help over the past twelve years. We know that they will go on to do great things with the knowledge they have gained.
Thank you for helping us honor Jackie and keep her memory alive.
Best wishes, the JSSF Family.
