Our Programs

The JEM Foundation is able to help families through our outreach program because of charitable donations from individual donors. We receive cash and in-kind donations, which are used to fund our free programs and help families experiencing hardship and loss. Our dedicated team of volunteers works tirelessly to find in-kind donations, corporate sponsorships, grants, matching programs, and other funding opportunities, so the JEM Foundation can help as many families and children as possible. Our nutrition program encourages families to eat healthy whole foods by offering recipes, shopping tips, and more. Our reading literacy program encourages families and children to spend more time together reading and exploring new ideas by offering age-appropriate reading lists and more.
