About the Fund:


Jay was driven by a passion to use education as a platform to make lasting impact. Inspired by his commitment to equity, he helped students achieve success despite daunting circumstances, and an education system and teaching methods that limited their ability to reach their full potential.

Jay inspired students & colleagues with his energy, authenticity, and belief that as we know better, we must become better. As a consultant, speaker, and author he advocated for policy changes within the education system that were essential for students to realize their goals.

Jay’s aim was to “connect with people to facilitate the process of informing and (re)educating in all environments, not just educational settings.” He believed in “the importance of being a role model to engage, empower, motivate, and inspire not only students and educators but society as a whole.”
