Please Support a Family of a Lost Loved One

The Chicago basketball community is mourning the loss of one of our own. Jervari Jackson (19 years young) passed away on the West Side of Chicago on December 13th. We were introduced to Jervari when he was just 12 years old. It was through our non-profit basketball program (Hoopademix) that our son played for whose mission is to connect families from all socio-economic backgrounds around the city. Jervari was so charismatic that you couldn’t help but fall in love with him on and off the court. Aka JJ, J5, Slim, Vari, just a few of his nicknames by those who love him working together to raise funds to support his family at this very difficult time. Jervari’s God given talent was recognized at an early age and now his dream, and our dreams for him will be left unfinished. Basketball was his first love, and we want to show our love back. The amount of pain a family experiences with the loss of a child is incomprehensible. Any amount you can contribute will make a significant impact and be appreciated by all.

Sincerely,

The Jungwirth Family
