The JMH Family Fund seeks to fund passion projects related to volunteering, travel, education and enrichment.
Volunteering
Have you ever wanted to build houses for Habitat for Humanity? Or help feed the hungry with the World Central Kitchen? With financial support, how would you make a difference in your community—locally or globally?
Travel
Have you ever wanted to take a cooking class in Rome? Or go see the opera in Vienna? What would you bring back from that experience to impact others and the world around you?
Education
Are you or your child or a young person in your community facing a challenge paying for their education? Unable to attend your dream school due to not enough financial aid? We understand the rising costs of education at all levels and the JMH Family Fund hopes to alleviate some of the pressure of these costs no matter where you are in your educational journey.
Enrichment
What are your passions? Entrepreneurship? Music? Dance? Art? With financial support, what would you do to continue to grow as a person?
