The truth is the help we provide our students is not possible without our supporters. Financial obstacles play a significant role in limiting our students' success. Your generous support is immeasurable.

Thanks to Operation Jump Start, I was encouraged to create my own club to help high school students find their passion and interests. I named my club “Jump Start Academy” because the mentorship program inspired me to also help students at my high school as OJS did. -Student, Class of 2020

It was an honor to be a sponsor of Operation Jump Start’s 25th Anniversary Gala. It isn’t often that a company finds a non-profit so in tune with the desires of its employees, suppliers and customers. -Kelli Anderson, Praxair

I didn't realize how rewarding being an OJS volunteer would be. The young man I mentored and I had so many amazing experiences together. What started out as a mentor/mentee relationship evolved into a friendship, and for that, I am very grateful. -Bob M., Volunteer
