How we got started
Jake loved people and loved to travel. A dear friend’s mother was going to Australia, one place Jake wanted to get to but hadn’t, and she suggested that we send a picture of Jake along with her mother. A simple wallet sized photo that would be easy to access and carry along. She took Jake and put a sticker on the back of the photo document-ing he had been to Australia! Then, ano
ther friend went to Italy shortly after that and took Jake but took some wonderful photos that made me smile. This project came about from wonderful friends who were trying to help me through my grief in a way that would make me smile and laugh, just as Jake always did. Now, we have been asking everyone who travels and goes on an adventure to “take Jake” and snap a photo! Board members
