Following Jack’s diagnosis with Burkitt lymphoma, a group of supporters named “Jack’s Pack” rallied around him. When he passed away 11 months later, his family and friends started a St. Baldrick’s Hero Fund called Jack’s Pack-We Still Have His Back to pay it forward.

The 5-year survival rate for childhood cancers in the U.S. is now 84%, though some still have no cure. Many kids die after that milestone. 5 years is not enough. Help #GiveKidsALifetime. Support St. Baldrick’s by donating, liking and retweeting. https://t.co/GIQprFeRyi
