🎄🩸 Christmas is a season of giving, but why wait until December?

This Christmas in July, we're asking our community to give a gift that can't be bought- the gift of life.

Central Florida's blood supply is critically low, and patients in our hospitals depend on generous donors every day. Whether it's someone battling cancer, recovering from surgery, or facing a medical emergency, your blood donation could make all the difference.

Join us in spreading the spirit of generosity this July. Schedule your blood donation, encourage a friend to donate with you, and help bring hope to those who need it most. Share a photo of yourself donating blood to inspire others. The more donors, the better; every pint of blood donated has the potential to save up to three lives.

Here are two easy ways to donate:

🩸 Donate at any OneBlood donor center or Big Red Bus: oneblood.org/donate-now
🏥 Donate at the AdventHealth Blood Donation Bus outside AdventHealth Orlando or at an AdventHealth Blood Center: adventhealth.com/blood-center

Thank you for helping us give the greatest gift of all this Christmas in July. ❤️

💚Nothing brings people together quite like a Southern BBQ! 💚

The JBMF team recently served one of Jason's favorite meals at the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Florida in Downtown Orlando: 40 plates of BBQ pulled pork, macaroni & cheese, coleslaw, green beans with bacon, fresh rolls, and chocolate chip cookies.

Every plate was prepared and served with love for the families staying at RMH. It was more than just a meal—it was a way to share comfort, kindness, and a little bit of Jason's spirit. A true Southern feast that Jason would have been proud of! ☘

❤️🤍💙 Happy Fourth of July! 🇺🇸

As we celebrate our nation's independence and look ahead to America's 250th birthday, we're reminded that our country's greatest strength lies in the love of family, the support of our communities, and the legacies we leave behind.

Today, we're sharing a few special memories from the Fourth of July in 2006—before Jason was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma. He always looked forward to celebrating with sparklers, fireworks, and time spent with the people he loved most.

Happy Fourth of July from all of us at JBMF! 💚☘

We are beyond grateful for the incredible response to this year’s JBMF Adversity Scholarship. The applications we received were thoughtful, powerful, and a true reflection of resilience and heart within our community.

With such a strong and highly competitive pool, narrowing it down was no easy task. After careful consideration, 11 exceptional students were selected. Each one truly reflects the mission of the Jason Beaird Memorial Foundation through their perseverance, character, and commitment to others.

Congratulations to our 2026 scholarship recipients. We are so proud of you and honored to support you as you take the next step in your journey.

☘JBMF shared our St. Patrick's Day spirit with Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Florida (RMH) by delivering adorable baby beanie caps to their Orlando Health House in Downtown Orlando. These festive, handmade caps were lovingly knitted by Kathleen Sullivan-Myrick, a Friend of JBMF and mom of BOD member Missy Van Anda. 💚

Want to see more ways JBMF supports RMH families? From home-cooked dinners to snack bags and room sponsorships, we’re proud to give back. Learn more at https://www.jasonbeairdfoundation.org/

☘💚 Happy St. Patrick's Day from JBMF! Throwing it back to Jason at the St. Patrick's Day Parade in Boston around 2009. Always one to have fun...we planned his Multiple Myeloma DR appointment at Dana Farber in Boston around the day so we could celebrate St. Patrick's Day up there!

Today, we’re honoring those joyful moments, the strength behind every journey, and the memories that continue to inspire our mission every day.

Wishing you all a day filled with laughter, love, and a little Irish luck! ☘

Today marks 13 years since we lost Jason.

Jason Beaird passed away in March 2013 after battling multiple myeloma at just 42 years old. He was a devoted husband and father, a passionate athlete, a coach, and someone who never stopped giving back to others. Even after his diagnosis, he continued competing in triathlons, coaching baseball, and raising money for charities because he believed in living life fully every single day.

Jason never let cancer define him. He lived with strength, humor, determination, and a heart for helping people.

The Jason Beaird Memorial Foundation exists to carry forward that spirit through scholarships, community partnerships, and service. Every event, every volunteer, and every student impacted is a reminder that his story did not end in 2013. It continues through all of us.

We miss you every day, Jason.
Thank you for inspiring us to live bigger, love harder, and help others.
