On May 23, 2024, our lives changed forever when we lost our son, Jake, to suicide at the age of 22. Every day, we miss him. Every day, we choose to honor his life by sharing his story and starting conversations that could help save someone else's.

This Giving Tuesday, help us raise $10,027 for #27 and build support systems that will last a lifetime.

The Jake Baker 27 Fund is dedicated to changing the way we approach mental health by starting conversations early, building strong support systems, and helping people recognize when it's time to reach out for additional help. Through our JB27 Talks, we share Jake's story with students, athletes, first responders, and organizations, reminding people that asking for help is a sign of strength.

In 2026 alone, we shared Jake's story at 42+ talks and events with more than 4,050 people.

Our goal is to build connection, trust, and support long before a crisis begins. We want people to know who they can turn to and feel comfortable letting those people in when life gets heavy.

Your gift covers travel, bracelets, patches, stickers, keychains and educational materials so JB27 Talks stay free for every school, university, team, and first responder group that asks. Every dollar helps Jake's story reach someone who may need it.

Thank you for helping us carry Jake's legacy forward. Whether you donate, share our campaign, or introduce someone to JB27, you help this message reach someone who may need it. We can lift this weight TOGETHER!! 💚
