July is Bereaved Parents Awareness Month, a time to acknowledge life's most profound and enduring loss, that of a loved child.
For these bereaved parents grief becomes part of life, woven into every ordinary moment and every missed milestone that follows. It changes everything! Divides the world into “before” and “after” with sorrow that shadows every smile or happy moment moving forward.
Jackie’s Foundation is our attempt to carry Jackie with us in everything we do. She lives through the causes we support, the kindness we try to extend, and is an integral part of the community we are so grateful to have around us.
If you know a bereaved parent, speak their child’s name today. Speak their name out loud. Let their parents know that their child is alive for you, carried in your heart 💕

Gratitude isn't something we save for special occasions, it's a practice. Today we're grateful for every person in our community that carries Jackie's light forward. Thank you for being here with us 🩷

Music has a way of evoking memories, emotions and connections.

Sometime ago we asked family and friends to let us know what music reminds them of Jackie. Today, on what would have been Jackies 37th birthday we are happy to launch Jackie’s Playlist, a compilation of the titles we received and some of Jackie’s favourite tunes through the years. Together they create a beautiful, joyful, lively album just like her.

We invite you to listen, to enjoy and remember. You can add it to your own rotation and if you are moved by any of the songs we’d love to know what it brings up for you 💗

🌷 En cette Fête des Mères, nous soulignons la force, le courage et la résilience de toutes les mamans. Derrière chaque parcours se cache une histoire unique, qui mérite d’être reconnue, respectée et soutenue.

À La rue des Femmes, nous accompagnons des mères qui, malgré les épreuves, continuent d’avancer avec une dignité remarquable.

En ce 11 mai, vous pouvez poser un geste concret pour elles.

🫂 Faites un don et aidez-nous à soutenir les mamans que nous accompagnons, aujourd’hui et tout au long de l’année.

Derrière chaque enfant atteint de cancer se trouve souvent une maman qui donne tout pour son bien-être. 💛

Au fil des traitements, des hospitalisations et des nombreux bouleversements, ces mamans font preuve d’une force et d’un amour immenses. Parce que la maladie bouleverse toute la famille, Leucan est présente pour briser le sentiment de solitude vécu par les enfants atteints de cancer et leurs proches, grâce à des services adaptés, de l’accompagnement et une présence humaine à chaque étape du parcours. ✨

En cette fête des Mères, on leur envoie toute notre admiration. 💐

Giving your time is giving of yourself, sharing your love 💗
On this Volunteer Appreciation Week, we honour Jackie’s incredible giving spirit. She was someone who showed up for others even when it wasn't easy, in unexpected ways and always with a full heart.
Her kindness was steady, warm, and generous... even during the most difficult times of her life.
These are the kind of volunteers we celebrate this week. The ones who give anyway. The ones who show up always! The ones who remind us that community is built one act of kindness at a time.
To every volunteer out there we say: you are seen, you are valued, and you are making a difference 🌟

Today we mark Jackie’s 11th yahrzeit. Eleven tragic years without her by our side, with her only in our hearts.

Over the years we learned to hold space for both the grief, the longing and the love of Jackie.
Grief changes over time but does not become easier to bear. The pain of Jackie’s loss did not fade, it rather somehow became more familiar, part of the fabric of our lives.
Her ideas and her special way of experiencing life, the nuance she would have contributed to our lives and to the world are gone but carried deep in our hearts daily. We try to hold on to her simple adage of “Life is for living”!

Her light continues to guide us as we carry her forward along side us through the work we do at the foundation and all the lives we touch on her behalf.

We thank you for remembering and caring and for all the times and ways you let us know that. You are part of our journey of bringing Jackie forward with us and we are eternally grateful for that.

Our hearts are full of gratitude for the community of friends and supporters — for every act of kindness, big or small, that keeps Jackie’s legacy alive. 💕
