Taylor Bay Jackson & Jordyn Belle Jackson’s Soaring Samaritans Youth Movement Spotlight
One nonprofit organization that stands out is Soaring Samaritans Youth Movement. Taylor Bay Jackson, a Chaminade eighth-grader, has owned this organization for four years. Taylor is a passionate soccer player who shares her love of soccer with other children around the world. With the help of her sister, Jordyn, they work as a team to hand deliver soccer balls to children in foster homes, underfunded soccer centers and schools, as well as government-run homes around the world. To fund the cost of delivering soccer balls and their transportation, Taylor and Jordyn created and own a jewelry line called Soar Jewels. Taylor brought her creative talent to our middle school and turned it into a lunchtime club which met once a month to bead bracelets. Her club was a huge success — all the beaded bracelets sold out at the Justice Fair. Taylor’s organization is an exemplary illustration of delivering good news to underprivileged institutions. In fact, the entire Justice Fair is good news.
Our students worked hard to deliver good news to other students, educators, and parents with the items that they sold for their charities, and within three lunchtime periods, all 25 groups raised a total amount of $12,897! The Justice Fair culminated in a celebration of Mass honoring the work of our students and their nonprofit organizations as a sign of good news.
