SPRINT FOR LIFE
Jane’s Joyride is thrilled to announce our support for MD Anderson Cancer Center’s 27th annual Sprint for Life 5k, taking place on Saturday, May 4th. We invite you to join us in participating in the event and becoming a part of the Jane’s Joyride team. Together, let's raise awareness and funds for ongoing ovarian cancer research.
GARDEN PROJECT
Jane’s family recognized the lack of access and resources for healthy food options in low-income areas of Houston. They partnered with Small Steps Nurturing Center to support the families they serve. Jane’s children along with family friends visited Small Steps families' homes to plant container gardens.
These families now have access to fresh vegetables right in their backyards! This opportunity created a sustainable food source, promoted nutrition, educated children on healthy food choices, and invested in the community.
