Welcome to Pay it Forward with Jackie Inc.

Pay it Forward with Jackie is run excluseively by volunteers; there are no paid employees. Pay it Forward with Jackie is an official 501c3 Non-Profit organization.

Pay it Forward with Jackie is built on the hopes and dreams of a childhood cancer patient, a little girl, named Jackie, who inspires to “pay it forward”. Our mission is to increase the number of donors on the National Bone Marrow Registry, provide relief to the poor by working with local agencies, and provide gift certificates and/or bill payment to qualified applicants with special consideration to families struggling with a childhood cancer diagnosis.

“The person you help today may be the person you thank tomorrow.”

We are thrilled to announce that SEVERAL donors we registered at our bone marrow drives have made the commitment to save a life.

Register on the bone marrow registry today through DKMS AMERICAS or Be the Match.

WHO'S JACKIE?

Jackie, a vibrant little girl, is not like other children her age. On Christmas Eve, 2006, Jackie, at the age of three, instead of waiting for Santa , was in the ER where she was diagnosed with leukemia (AML), an adult form of leukemia not commonly seen in children. Jackie fought hard through months of chemotherapy and was even put on a ventilator at one point. Yet, she continued to fight and finished treatment August 2007. Sadly, Jackie’s stubborn disease returned in February 2008 ,worse than ever. Jackie once again was in the battle for her life and would ultimately need a bone marrow transplant to survive. There were no suitable donors on the registry for her. If not for an unrelated cord blood donation she would have died. Jackie still suffers post-transplant complications but pushes herself daily by
“paying it forward”
