The Sweet Julia Grace Foundation
The Sweet Julia Grace Foundation (SJGF), based out of Bristow, VA, is a non-profit, all volunteer organization, INSPIRED by, and in honor of Julia Grace Knight who passed away in November 2013. Julia lived 12 beautiful years inspiring everyone who knew her, read about her, and loved her. Our mission at SJGF is to fill in the gaps, grant wishes, and meet the non-medical needs of children that are seriously ill, have special needs, or are in the midst of a medical crisis.
We build ramps, buy all-terrain wheelchairs, buy Ipads & laptops to keep our children connected, modify homes to give children more independence, send children on DREAM trips, arrange celebrity meet & greets, do room makeovers, buy therapy toys, throw parties, help families with day to day expenses like rent and groceries, do yard cleanup, and so much more!
We strive to create opportunities for our community to be a part of helping these families through volunteering, family-friendly fundraising events, Christmas programs and kids-helping-kids programs. We ‘bridge the gap’ between the people who want to give of their talents, services, and gifts with the families that we serve and love. It truly does take a village. If you would like to offer your companies services, your time, or personal gifts to SJGF, you can learn more on our website and Facebook page.
