Just For J is near and dear to my heart!! Started in honor of my daughter, Jacqueline in order for her to fulfill her bucket list trip after hearing devistatinh news. It has become a bigger blessing than we ever imagined. Overwhelmed with all the support we turned Just For J into a nonprofit in order to give back to others. It's so important to help/support those in need & we strive to do just that.

Just for J raises awareness for Charcot Marie Tooth Disease while giving back to children faced with medical challenges. My best friend, Amanda Borg, originally started this nonprofit with the goal and desire to raise awareness and help raise money for Jacqueline and her family. She fell in love with precious Jacqueline and felt a calling from the man upstairs to step up and help make a difference in that sweet girl's life. Since then, this organization has grown incredibly and has impacted more children and families! It's such a blessing! The love and passion that this team puts in to this organization is absolutely amazing and I can not say how happy my heart is to see the impact Just for J is making. Personally, I am incredibly proud of Amanda for being so brave back in 2012 and following her heart to help create such wonderful opportunities for these sweet children and their families. it brings tears to my eyes to think about it because I know how special it is to her and how important it is to her life. My entire heart pours out to Just for J and I am truly inspired.

For me, just for j has been an eye opening experience. The heart and compassion flows seamlessly. Not just family's of disabled children are benefited from the organization but the whole community! It brings everyone together to better the way we think, act, and portray others in a positive light. Just for j is a fantastic way to give back in a way that is incredibly simple but extremely impactful.

Just for J is doing amazing things! Our goal is to raise funds for children with medical needs who aren’t capable of affording daily needs. We have grown so much over the last 6 years and continue to do so as we have branched to Denver and are branching to Houston this spring. I love everyone who is involved and their heart to serve.

Just for J helped us climb out of debt after having twins born at 23 weeks who required a 5 month hospital stay plus countless surgeries and procedures post NICU life. Not only did they help with the medical bills but they also helped put a smile on our big kid's face with a family trip yo the Aquarium. They are amazing people truly changing the lives of families who have children with medical needs!

Just for J was started in 2012 by my daughter, Amanda Borg. A full time graduate student with a full time job and a heart of gold! Regardless of her already busy schedule, her love for Jacqueline (J) and desire to help out inspired her to organize the first Just for J Fun Run and 5K event. Although she had no prior experience, her hard work and passion for the cause made this day a success. A wonderful charity was born.

Just for J, Inc. has since grown into a qualified non profit charity organization. While always bringing awareness to CMT, Just for J also raises money for children with other challenging medical needs.

In addition to the annual Fun Run and 5K, Just for J, Inc. now collaborates with other like minded charities and holds many varied events throughout the year.

If you find yourself in North Texas and can attend a Just for J event, I highly recommend it! Amanda and her staff of energetic volunteers have an infectious attitude of giving.

Once you meet Jacqueline, it will change your life!

My Girlfriend, Amanda Borg, founder of Just for J, started this non profit with the help of caring family members and friends. It had the original intention of helping sweet Jacqueline, and has since transformed into an organization with an amazingly widespread reach, helping multiple families, and bringing families in need the comfort and support they deserve. I have been blessed to be a part of this organization for the past few years now, and can't say enough about its bright and life changing future!! Just for J has touched so many, and it will continue to grow and give fully.

I first found out about The Just for J 5k when it was just a race that I wanted to be apart of. The year I joined the team I felt so inspired by Jacqueline and wanted to do more. We decided that we would make Just for J an official nonprofit to where we could help more kids with medical challenges. Every time I meet another honorary family member, my heart is full and I'm even more inspired by their story. I am thankful that I am apart of Just for J and I am apart of being a difference in these kids lives.

Just for J makes life easier for children facing medical difficulties. When a child is seriously or chronically ill, financial burdens can be overwhelming. Just for J helps families so they can focus on the health of their child. Jacqueline is an inspiration. Her bravery and zest for life inspired the creation of Just for J. I'm proud to be volunteer and donor for this charity. I believe 100% in their efforts. Amazing leadership. Inspiring results!!
