PURSUE HEALING THROUGH WHOLE-SELF CARE

OUR MISSION

Jane’s Joyride is a grant-based charitable organization which supports education, funds research, and raises awareness in the pursuit of long-term healthy living.

5K CHAT & STROLL

On February 1, more than 60 guests and their four-legged friends gathered for the 2nd Annual 5K Chat & Stroll, a morning filled with connection, remembrance, and celebration. The event featured the heartfelt dedication of Jane’s memorial bench, followed by a meaningful walk honoring her legacy and the incredible strides Jane’s Joyride has made over the past year.

3RD ANNUAL BREAKFAST

The 3rd Annual Transform Your Life & Health Breakfast, held on September 25 at The Briar Club, was a huge success. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our supporters and the inspiring talk by Dr. Jennifer L. McQuade, the event raised over $50,000 for Jane’s Joyride.

GARDEN PROJECT

Jane’s family recognized the lack of access and resources for healthy food options in low-income areas of Houston. They partnered with Small Steps Nurturing Center to support the families they serve. Jane’s children along with family friends visited Small Steps families' homes to plant container gardens.

 

These families now have access to fresh vegetables right in their backyards! This opportunity created a sustainable food source, promoted nutrition, educated children on healthy food choices, and invested in the community.

RESEARCH FINDINGS

Jane’s Joyride proudly funded Dr. Anil Sood’s groundbreaking Plant-Derived Vesicles (PDVs) Research Study at MD Anderson Cancer Center. This study explored PDVs as an innovative therapeutic approach for ovarian cancer, demonstrating their ability to deliver high concentrations of anti-inflammatory substances directly into tumors.
