Great things are done by a series of small things brought together.

Our Current and Recurring Campaigns
Ongoing Buddy Benches Campaign
Love Like Jackson decided early on one of their major goals was to ensure that no child was left alone. Buddy Benches are a great tool to encourage children to reach out, include, and care for one another on the playground. Through online crowdfunding, Love Like Jackson has placed 5 benches throughout the St Louis area.

Grief Resource Bags
Love Like Jackson seeks to make grief-related resources readily available for families. Each bag is filled with recommended books, supplies, and activities that could offer support following a sibling’s death. Thus far Love Like Jackson has supplied bags to several centers.

Spring Blood Drive
Twice a year, Love Like Jackson partners with Mercy Hospital for blood drives. Giving blood is an excellent way to help save a life. We’re excited about our spring blood drive on March 28, 2022.

Annual School Supplies Drive
Every child has the right to be academically successful. Sometimes, one of the obstacles in way of their success is access to school supplies. Every July and August, Love Like Jackson conducts a school drive for supplies, backpacks, lunch boxes, and anything else needed to successfully start school. They are distributed to local schools.
Opportunity begins July 2022
Annual Field Day
Every year, Love Like Jackson holds a large family field day. The importance of being active and outdoors is a vital key for our emotional health. Building experiences that involve the whole family is also important to building relationships and making memories. The day-long event honors these things with races, challenges, and sports. It’s a great day to spend with our community.
More information on the 2022 Field Day coming soon!
