The Foundation will also strive to maintain a "crisis" fund to assist children and families facing unexpected tragedies.  Our team would look to partner with other social service agencies and resources to work toward a sustainable assistance program for such a need..

The Foundation envisions assistance to children by way of educational programming and support, nutritional assistance (which may also include outreach to parents to provide guidance to support educational and nutritional goals), and enrichment support via educational field trips, presentations, and the like.

JORY Children's Foundation (so named to honor my sons, Jonathan and Ryan) is the realization of a long-time goal of mine to provide a way to provide  help to those less fortunate. The Foundation was formed in September of 2015, and we've received notification from the IRS that we are recognized as a tax-exempt, non-profit charity under section 501(c)3, meaning all your donations are tax deductible.
