Life changed in an instant for our dear friend Jake and his family. He was diagnosed with an aggressive form of primary brain cancer and has undergone debulking surgery to remove as much as possible. Jake now faces a difficult road ahead with chemoradiation and ongoing treatment.

Jake is a devoted husband to Brooke and a loving father to their beautiful twin girls, Eliza and Zoey. He’s the kind of person who shows up for others, unwavering, kind, and full of quiet strength. But now, he and his family need us to show up for them.

This diagnosis has left Jake unable to work, and while the family is focused on his health and comfort, the reality is that the financial strain of fighting cancer is already growing. This is the the kind of stress no family should have to face.

If you know Jake and Brooke, you know they are always the first to help a friend in need, but never ask for help themselves. So we’re asking on their behalf. Any support you can offer will help ease the burden and remind them they’re not alone in this fight.

Thank you for surrounding this beautiful family with love, compassion, and hope.
