Gayle Jackson, President, of The DeSean Jackson Foundation, is soliciting and identifying additional non-profits, medical service providers; and, human services organizations to have tables at the Health fair. She is also reaching out to the loyal volunteers, service providers and faith-based initiatives who have helped The DeSean Jackson Foundation for the past several years grow to the its present status. The annual DeSean Jackson Foundation community health fairs were founded in memory of DeSean’s father, Bill Jackson, who died from Pancreatic Cancer. Mrs. Jackson says its extremely important to have testing and awareness of Pancreatic Cancer as the major focus in sustaining and growing the foundation. Therefore, we are sending an appeal out to healthcare providers to volunteer to help us at this event.

Please contact Mrs. Jackson at deseanjacksonfoundationceo@yahoo.com with your inquiries/requests. DeSean and Gayle Jackson will review requests and the final list must be submitted to Temple University by next Tuesday.

The event will be open to the Temple University student population and the general public. Spaces will be limited.

If you have any more questions or concerns during the interim, please feel free to contact: jaimeeswift@temple.edu.

Thank you so much!
