The Need Is Real…

That’s how many children are diagnosed with cancer every year around the world. Help us send Jessie’s JoyJars to every one of them!

Worldwide, 400,000 children are diagnosed with cancer each year. And in the U.S., more children die of childhood cancer than any other disease—more than AIDS, asthma, cystic fibrosis, congenital anomalies and diabetes combined.

What are JoyJars?

JoyJars®, n. 1. 64oz plastic jars that are filled with hospital approved toys and tons of fun (nothing cheesy) 2. Symbol of everything Jessie stood for; hope, joy and love 3. A powerful boost that encourages children battling cancer and lets them know “WE CARE”.

Help, My Child Has Cancer

Let us encourage your family to NEGU!

The Rees family knows firsthand what it feels like to have a child fighting cancer and would love to encourage your entire family to “Never Ever Give Up” through ClubNEGU. ClubNEGU is a free program for all Courageous Kids that are actively fighting cancer, their SuperSiblings, and Courageous Parents, too! Each registered family receives fun recurring boosts of joy. These gifts are delivered for the sole purpose of wanting them to feel encouraged, bring them smiles, create priceless memories, and help them know they are not alone in this journey.
