Board of Directors
Our Mission
The Play With Purpose JP Foundation was created from love, loss and a desire to honor Jason’s life through meaningful action.
Our mission is to advocate for early detection and cancer screenings, support patients and their families, provide resources for grief and mental wellness, and give back to the communities that have supported us.
Through compassion, education, outreach and community involvement, we strive to turn remembrance into hope and hope into purpose.
