Why We Exist

At the heart of the Jaymo Foundation is a simple truth: cancer affects more than just one person—it touches whole families. When a parent is diagnosed, children are often left feeling scared, confused, and overwhelmed. Our mission is to step in, offering emotional guidance, practical support, and crucial resources to help these families find strength, connection, and resilience amid uncertainty.

Jayme’s Legacy

Jaymo Foundation began with Jayme Marooney, a man whose battle with cancer taught us the extraordinary power of resilience, presence, and unconditional love. Jayme didn't just fight cancer—he showed us how to live fully and love fiercely despite it. His spirit inspires everything we do, reminding us that community and hope endure even in the hardest times.
