I Know Jack Foundation

The I Know Jack Foundation has a mission to raise funds in support of cancer patients and their families from diagnosis through survivorship. The goal of this nonprofit is to raise awareness about cancer, support those affected by cancer, assist with cancer research, and improve the survivor’s quality of life. Funds from I Know Jack are applied in several ways, including 2,500 backpacks that are delivered to patients in treatment, endowments to the Helen G. Nassif and Hall Perrine Cancer Centers for patient financial assistance, and in support a camp for children who experience cancer (the Camp Heart Connection). I Know Jack understands that cancer affects the entire family and it takes a community to beat it.
