CurrentNo one ever thinks they will hear the words, “Your child has cancer.” I didn’t. When our son, Jeremy was diagnosed with T Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in 2008 the world as we knew it literally stopped for our family. After one re-occurrence and a bone marrow transplant from his younger brother, Jeremy is now in remission and a student at Kent State University . Faith, the medical team, and support from family and friends is what helped us through his journey. We consider ourselves fortunate and wanted to help other children and their families. Knowing we could never pay everyone back for their support and generosity, we chose to pay it forward. Jeremy Cares was founded on the pay-it-forward philosophy. A 501(c)3 non-profit organization , our mission is to enrich the lives of families with children dealing with serious illnesses by promoting emotional and social healing by working with other local organizations to support and help the families regain feelings of control, improve self-image, and to diminish the stresses that illness creates for the entire family. Simply Put…It is our goal to create "moments of joy" for families based on our the belief that a little caring can go along way in creating hope.www.jeremycares.org
