Purchase with a Purpose This Holiday Season

December 10, 2020

Stephanie Royster of Glass Art À La Carte

With a full week of sales and online deals, one thing was missing for Jett Foundation: the voice of the talented, funny, hard-working community members that we serve.

To help all of us purchase with a purpose, Jett Foundation has pulled together a special list of great gifts anyone on your list would love. The best part? It helps give back to the talented men and women within the Duchenne and neuromuscular disorder communities.

Check out our list below for some of our favorite ideas. Can’t find what you are looking for? Give the gift of Jett by donating in honor of a loved one or friend at www.jettfoundation.org/annualappeal.

Happy shopping!
