When Cancer Demands Everything, Community Gives Hope
The Jon William Gerretsen Foundation supports families facing cancer with resources, education, and scholarship opportunities—because no one should navigate this journey alone.
WHAT WE DO
Supporting Families Through Cancer’s Toughest Challenges
The Jon William Gerretsen Foundation was born from Jon’s personal battle with stage four metastatic cancer and his family’s determination to help others facing similar journeys. We provide educational scholarships and offer the support needed to navigate the overwhelming world of cancer care.
Every donation makes a direct impact—funding scholarships for deserving students, sharing critical information about specialized cancer centers, and building a community of hope for families when they need it most.
