came out for our return to downtown Abacoa where we
raised a record number of funds. The foundation has
provided over 3,400 scholarships for ISR self-rescue

have learned to self-rescue in the two years since our Independence Middle School won “Largest School Group” with their Future Teacher’s Academy.

our mission at Live Like Jake is to support those families
whose lives have been forever changed by a nonfatal
drowning accident. Those families whose children survive
a drowning but have lifelong medical needs as a result. We
are so happy to be able to use donations raised this year
to help give them some of the relief they urgently need.”
Following the 5K winners’ awards and prize drawings,
Morrison shared the foundation’s upcoming events which
include: Watermelons for Water Safety (June 1 to Aug. Jupiter Beach Specialists
