The Jedediah Thomas Smith Foundation provides financial and emotional support for families of children battling childhood cancer. The foundation was created as a way to remember and honor the life of Jed Smith, a life-loving twelve-year-old boy who was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia at four years old. Jed fought his cancer valiantly for eight years but he lost his battle in 2010. He is missed every day.

We embrace that spirit that was always present in Jed and work to support local children battling cancer as well as their families. We raise money to provide monetary support, scholarships and gifts to the pediatric cancer community. JTSF provides support to families for travel expenses related to their child’s treatment, helps with pharmacy costs, donates toys and crafts to the outpatient clinic at Penn State Hershey Children’s Hospital as well as assists with funeral and bereavement expenses for those who have lost their children to this horrendous disease. With 46 children being diagnosed and 7 children losing their battle each day our mission is of utmost importance.
