The Joe Jackson Foundation is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to improving the quality of life of children with Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) and their families and to provide adaptive equipment throughout Arizona. This organization was created by Joe’s calling to primarily help inspire individuals disabled by SCI to continue living actively because there’s much to overcome despite the challenges they face and to fund future opportunities for Joe’s quest to walk again. It is our mission to educate, enable, encourage, and empower individuals living with paralysis by:
- Educate by maintaining a reliable, up-to-date website to provide extensive information about Spinal Cord Injury including: guidance for dealing with SCI both in the early days and down the road, updates on SCI research advancements, personal anecdotes about living with SCI, and links to other organizations., and adaptive equipment.
- Enable individual lives with the focus on providing adaptive equipment and adaptive sports programs information by showing many platforms sports are played.
- Encourage by innovative scientific research to treat and cure paralysis via the JJF Organization Grant Program.
- Empower by initiating the JJF Individual Grant Program to support children and their families in providing adaptive equipment post-injury. The Joe Jackson Foundation’s Individual Grants provide funding for adaptive equipment, some sports and recreational equipment necessary to allow those living with paralysis to continue on living their dreams and accomplishing their goals.
