The Jeffrey Young Memorial Foundation
Established in 2014, The Jeffrey Young Memorial Foundation (JYMF) is an effort to improve the lives of young people around the world. Before a tragic boating accident took his life, Jeffrey lived by the philosophy Carpe Diem, or Seize the Day. With extraordinary passion for education, health, sports, music, travel, friends and family, Jeffrey spent his time fighting to better himself and the lives of those around him. JYMF supports organizations and scholarships that share the same philosophy and passions as Jeffrey's and that positively impact the lives of young people and their communities.
“In the end, we only regret the chances we didn’t take, relationships we were afraid to have, and the decisions we waited too long to make.”
