Jacob Draper Memorial Fund July 3, 1992 - November 12, 2018
No one can help you if they don't know. There was no note. We didn't find anything in his phone. There was nothing. Anything.

Through the Jacob Draper Memorial Foundation we give at least one scholarship annually to a graduating senior at CF Brewer High School--almost the entire family's alma mater including Jacob--and donate to su***de awareness organizations. Jacob was 26 years old when he took his life, leaving behind a three year-old son and a number of shocked family and friends asking "why?". No one knew--or if they knew they didn't say--Jacob had even thought about su***de before. The Jacob Draper Memorial Fund began to help us help others like Jacob. He didn't say anything to anyone and we don't want that to happen. We hope someone thinking about dying will stumble across this page and say something to someone. They can't help you if they don't know.

Strength doesn't always look like pushing through. Sometimes it's resting. Sometimes it's asking for help. Sometimes it's just making it to tomorrow.

Whatever today looks like for you, you're doing enough. 💜
