Welcome to Pay it Forward with Jackie Inc.

Pay it Forward with Jackie is a non-profit organization.  It 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 by hosting bone marrow drives, providing relief to the poor by working with local food pantries, providing 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 one of the donors we registered at one of our bone marrow drives has made the commitment to save a life.  As a result, a young boy received his life saving stem cell transplant. Click on Upcoming Events to learn where you can register to be a life saver.
