About this Event
JoJo's Blankets Mission Presentation, Live Like JoJo Foundation
Come join us as we share, for the first time with the general public, the impactful mission of JoJo's Blankets.
"Our final moments with JoJo were devasting. We can never rewrite our final memory with Jordan but we can educate, empower, and advocate to curate and protect end of life care so no parent will have to endure what we did."
The JoJo Blanket, born out of a resolve for JoJo's father to show up for all other fathers who will follow in his footsteps, set in motion a whole movement that is changing the face of pediatric end of life care. The JoJo Blanket is a bridge between healthcare providers and families , designed to foster presence and connection when they enter a hospital room where a parent must say goodbye to their child. The JoJo Blanket is handed to the parent, βThis is from a family who has stood there beforeβ¦β. Parents leave the hospital with this blanket in their arms, offering a thread of hope to cling to, a deep connection to their child filling their arms as they leave the hospital, and a comforting reminder to never give up in the months ahead.
Join us to hear about how we are changing the face of pediatric end of life care; aiming at protecting the sacred moments of families while also empowering their healthcare providers. Witness the impact of our work providing over 300 blankets to 7 California hospitals thus far. Help us pave the way and create more awareness around pediatric end of life care.
