FOOD SECURITY
The Jack Brewer Foundation strives to provide relief to communities around the world suffering from extreme poverty and hunger. JBF Worldwide has raised funds to send meals to those in extreme famine areas—the Foundation has shipped nearly 300,000 meals so far—and it assists in providing safe water, food, medical care and education to children abroad. Local partnerships have also enabled JBF Worldwide to bring food and shelter to those closer to home. The Jack Brewer Foundation’s continuing mission is to provide the resources communities need to maintain child safety and a healthy upbringing.
MEDICAL AID & DISASTER RELIEF
JBF Worldwide is passionate about supporting international medical relief efforts. In collaboration with Doc2Doc, JBF Worldwide recently shipped over $500,000 worth of new medical supplies to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Lilongwe, Malawi. Before these efforts, the hospital had up to five infants per incubator, no ultrasound machine and it lacked other necessary equipment. The partnership has provided the hospital the ability to treat more patients and to practice safer medical treatments ever before.
JBF Worldwide also offers Rx Relief Cards to help Americans save on health insurance and prescription needs. The JBF Healthcare for Americans Initiative focuses on the uninsured and underinsured individuals nationwide by providing medical access to affordable medical resources and medication in effort to sustain healthy lives.
EDUCATION & CULTURAL EXCHANGE
The Jack Brewer Foundation is committed to helping build an educated world. JBF Worldwide works with the Montessori School Program and the Montessori Model United Nations (MMUN) to create schools, implement teacher training and forge new opportunities for students to learn and grow. Here in the United States, JBF Worldwide works with Global Ambassador athletes and assists in building schools in their local communities.
The Foundation is currently working with Montessori to provide a national teacher training program in Malawi, Africa, and JBF supports existing Montessori schools and teacher training initiatives in Haiti. JBF Worldwide will soon establish the Montessori program in China and other countries around the globe.
