Hello JMF Family and Friends!
As we continue to embrace our 2024 theme, “A Love for God, A Love for People,” we are profoundly thankful for our JMF Partners. Your steadfast support and generosity have positioned us to not only meet but surpass our 2024 goals. We are confident in a strong finish for 2024 and, with God’s guidance, eagerly anticipate the opportunity to further expand our reach as we begin planning for 2025.

Global Missions
JMF has broadening our mission efforts in 2024. During a recent vacation in August, our journey took us to Cape Town, South Africa. JMF had the privilege of hosting and facilitating a dinner and discussion with some brilliant minds. We explored the significance of networking, connecting, and the power of healthy relationships. Using Proverbs 27:17 as our guiding scripture, I shared what I hoped were valuable insights. In return, I was deeply blessed and inspired by their incredible engagement. I love the nickname they gave me. “Uncle.” To GOD be the glory and thank you Shekinah Full Gospel Church for your gracious hospitality!

In May, we visited Kingston, Jamaica and had a wonderful cultural experience. ICYMI: Below is a link that summarizes the trip.
Our next trip is scheduled to take place April 25th to May 4th, 2025, visiting with our family in Kenya, Life for Children Ministry. We are actively recruiting missioners to join us. If you are interested or have any questions about this life changing trip, feel free to reach out to us @ jimmymacfoundation5928@gmail.com.
Nutrition and Community Outreach
Through our co-sponsorship, the Jimmy Mac Foundation (JMF) is blessed to contribute to the outstanding efforts of Habitat for Humanity, North Central Georgia. On August 10th, we joyfully attended the first nail ceremony for the Parks family, who will move into their new home in November 2024.
On September 6th, we celebrated with the Stringer and Azinger families as they received the keys to their new homes.
In our continued dedication to the nutrition sustainability initiative with Life for Children Ministry, we have recently sponsored the construction of another greenhouse. Additionally, we have funded two more home builds, which are anticipated to be completed in the upcoming months.
Grant and Volunteer Opportunities
Grant funding remains a key development area for JMF. We pray for greater success in identifying volunteer resources to assist us. You can find a list of JMF volunteer opportunities at Volunteer | Jimmy Mac Foundation | Remote Volunteering Opportunities.
We continue to thank GOD for His constant guidance and the support of our current and future JMF supporters. Remember, partnering with the Jimmy Mac Foundation means touching communities worldwide. To GOD be the glory!
With a Servant’s Heart,
The JMF Team
