Bringing Smiles to Children and Families
Because people affected by pediatric diseases, hospitalizations, and conditions need some hope and joy.
By family. For family.
Friends of JJ is a 501c3 nonprofit organization that brings hope and joy to children and families affected by pediatric diseases. Brenna & Chris Messana, with the help of their family started this foundation in 2014 in memory of their brother JJ. JJ was 27 years old when he passed away after battling pediatric cancer for eight years.
JJ’s story is incredible.
