On May 23rd, 2024, our lives changed forever when tragically and unexpectedly we lost our son Jake to suicide at the age of 22. His passing was a devastating shock to all who knew him. Jake Baker was our beloved son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin, and friend to many. In response, we established The Jake Baker 27 Fund with the hope of making a difference.

Shortly after starting the Jake Baker 27 Fund we began giving JB27 talks. The purpose of the talk is to start the conversation about mental health by opening up about our son, Jake, and being vulnerable and approachable. We share Jake’s story and educate others on the importance of talking about their problems, struggles, and life issues. Jake's story serves as a powerful reminder that no one should face this journey alone. Through these efforts, his legacy continues to inspire understanding, compassion, and support for those in need.

Please be sure to follow us on Social Media. We can lift this weight together!!

We respectfully ask for your support in making a difference. Every donation that is made to our fund is deeply appreciated and will leave a lasting impact on countless lives.
