We are deeply saddened by the passing of Jack Nixon, a cherished member of The Burke Fund family whose generosity and leadership shaped our organization for decades.

Jack’s impact will live on through the countless students and families he supported, and his legacy as both a Burke Scholar and devoted volunteer will never be forgotten.

Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, and all who are grieving.
