Are You An Organ Donor?

11/20/2025

Thank you to everyone who participated in the Live Like Jack Golf Invitational! 💚⛳️

The Live Like Jack Foundation is incredibly grateful for your generous support of this year’s tournament at Alta Vista Country Club on October 20, 2025!

Our Opening Ceremonies kicked off with an exciting Helicopter Ball Drop — and we actually had two winners this year! Congratulations to Art Melendres and Vince Gillman, who split the $2,500 jackpot! 🎉

First-year singer Vivian Otta delivered a stunning performance of the National Anthem. Her powerful voice moved everyone on the course.

We were honored to have guest speaker Bob LaRue, who received a heart transplant in 2023. Bob shared his incredible story — from driving himself to the hospital, to the life-changing surgery, to what it means to have a second chance at life. His message of hope resonated deeply with us all. ❤️

Congratulations to the winners of the 2025 Live Like Jack Invitational!
🏆 Tim Cole, David Otta, Connor Cole, and Paul Presiatti — shooting a 57 at Alta Vista (15 under par)!

A huge thank you to all of our sponsors for helping make this event possible.

Because of you, we raised just over $12,000!
Every dollar supports our mission to promote organ donation — funding community outreach, education, and campaigns that encourage people to become registered organ donors.

We also host events like our annual golf tournament and the Live Like Jack Walk, which bring our community together to honor Jack’s legacy and keep these life-giving programs going.

We operate with very low administrative overhead, meaning most of every donation goes directly into programs and impact. Your support truly helps us continue spreading Jack’s message of kindness, generosity, and life-giving action. 💚

This video is a powerful reminder of what it means to give the gift of life. 💚

Every day, people are waiting—hoping—for a second chance. Organ donation doesn’t just save lives… it changes them forever.

Jack made that difference. Because of his selfless decision, five lives were saved. Five families got more time. More hugs. More hope.

Watch this video and ask yourself:
“What if I could be someone’s miracle?”

Say YES to organ donation. Register. Share. Inspire others.

This Mother's Day, we honor the strength of all mothers—especially those whose children became heroes through the gift of life.

Jack’s mom, Jessica, continues to turn unimaginable loss into a mission of hope and purpose. Her courage reminds us that love endures, and it inspires others to carry forward Jack’s legacy.

Today, we honor her and all moms who inspire us to

As we turn the page to May, we carry the momentum of Donate Life Month with us. But organ donation awareness doesn’t stop in April—it’s every day, every moment.

Jack lived a life of kindness, courage, and generosity. Through his selfless gift, five people were given a second chance. Let’s honor him by continuing the conversation and sharing the impact of organ donation.

Be a hero. Be like Jack. 💚

The 2025 Live Like Jack Walk was nothing short of incredible. 💚

Almost a hundred people supported the walk in Jack’s memory — honoring his legacy, celebrating the lives saved through organ donation, and standing in support of families touched by the gift of life. Every step we took was filled with love, purpose, and hope.

Thank you to everyone who showed up, shared their hearts, and helped us carry Jack’s mission forward. Together, we are saving lives.
