The Jessie Banks Foundation

Non profit Organization The JBF has been established as a living tribute to the precious life of Jessie Banks. She spent her life in service to others.

The Jessie Banks Foundation is a public, not-for-profit, organization founded by Dr. Sharon Banks-Williams, daughter of the beloved Jessie Banks, in 2002 as a vehicle to perpetuate her memory and service to humankind. And, has as its major goal: to enhance the lives of others through empowerment and academic scholarship by providing tuition assistance to deserving scholars. As noted, our goal is n

ot lofty; it reflects the spirit of JBF’s legacy and the fundamental virtues of a healthy, civilized society. Jessie Banks was a woman filled with generosity, support, and was a noble spirit, which touched and assisted the lives of many. In the New York Tri-State area Jessie Banks was known as another “Mother Teresa.” Her encouragement, assistance, and support improved the quality of the human condition. The Jessie Banks Foundation honors her labor and continues to keep her legacy alive by helping one student at a time.
