Since 2009, the Jumping Frog Foundation has been hard at work raising funds to support 2 important local charities: Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation & The Valley Foundation.
"Triple Negative is an aggressive form of breast cancer that is still not completely understood" says Jessica Spillane, owner of Jumping Frog Pilates and the Founder of the Jumping Frog Foundation. "We're fortunate that we now understand there are different types of breast cancer so patients aren't given once size fits all treatment, but there is still a lot more to be done".
The Valley Foundation supports the Valley Program, Bergen County's pre & elementary school for children with Autism. "Last year, The Valley Foundation succeeded in raising enough funds to donate a school bus to the Valley program which has saved the school (and taxpayers) money", says Spillane, "Now the goal is to deliver 1 SMARTboard to all 19 classrooms the program supports."
So far in 2011, Spillane has raised and donated over $10,000 to these favorite charities. Through events like the "Frog-a-thon" which provides 30 minute sessions for $35, and a hosted lunch at Harvest Bistro in Closter this May, Spillane is thrilled with this year's results.
"Next year, I hope I'll make it to $20,000 in donated funds"
Next session to start
February 2012.
