Roses for Missy
Who we are
April Jackson (affectionately known to family and friends as Missy), died at the tender age of 29, following complications from lupus. Her daughter, Jasmine Kendrick, was left at the age of 4 to battle with grief on her own. Finding the tools to navigate such an experience, with little to no clinical intervention, seemed futile yet proved her resilience. This nonprofit organization was created so that children who have experienced the death of a loved one do not have to endure it on their own. Roses for Missy leads with the premise of mental wellness but recognizes it must extend outside the counselor's office. Taking a holistic approach to provide support with grief counseling and recreational intervention, as well as raising community awareness, children will have a safe place to grow through their grief.
