Since its inception a decade ago, @thejillianfund

Since its inception a decade ago, @thejillianfund has raised nearly $3 million to help hundreds of families cope with the financial hardships of caring for a critically ill child. The non-profit has made direct grants to underwrite the cost of lost wages, transportation, food, medicine and more so that parents can be with children treated at Hackensack Meridian Children's Health at Joseph M. Sanzari Children’s Hospital.

Now The Jillian Fund is evolving, and next year, will meld into the Hackensack Meridian Health Foundation. We have so much gratitude for their support over the years and look forward to this next chapter! Read more at givehmh.org/TheJillianFundLegacy or at our link in bio.
