A Good News Story…

On Monday while I was at home recovering from strep throat I came

Across this heart-warming story about Jessie Rees and her heart of

Compassion for other children who were also suffering from a

Cancer diagnosis.

3 of my favorite quotes on giving came to mind when I learned

About her story….

“… And remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said,

‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’” (Acts 20:35)

“I have found that among its other benefits giving liberates the

Soul of the giver.”

  • Maya Angelou

“No act of kindness no matter how small is ever wasted.”

  • Aesop

The Jessie Rees Foundation was inspired by 12 years old

Jessie Rees during her 10 month fight with two brain tumors

(DIPG).

During Jessie's courageous fight she chose to help other kids

Fighting cancer by sending them her fun-filled Joy Jars and

Encouraging them to NEGU… Never Ever Give Up!

Jessie personally was able to send over 3,000 of her Joy Jars

To other kids during her fight. Although Jessie lost her fight with

Cancer on January 5, 2012 she left behind a massive wave of

Compassion and a legacy of love.

The mission of the Jessie Rees Foundation is to ensure

Every child fighting cancer has the support, resources and

Encouragement to Never Ever Give Up!
