The Jorge Nation Foundation (JNF) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization established in 2011. JNF sends children with serious illnesses, including cancer, along with their families, on once-in-a-lifetime all-inclusive Dream Trips to destinations of their choosing. JNF partners with the region’s leading children’s hospitals, Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital and Nicklaus Children’s Hospital (formerly Miami Children’s Hospital) to refer children for Dream Trip consideration.

Through generous donations and sponsorships, JNF has been able to send dozens of children and their families on Dream Trips and hundreds of children and their families on annual Group Dream Trips to exciting local venues such as the Frost Museum, Zoo Miami, Jungle Island and the Miami Aquarium. JNF’s Dream Trips are first-class and truly special all-inclusive experiences. Annually, JNF’s goal is to organize approximately 10 Dream Trips for children to venues around the U.S. and Western Caribbean.

The average cost per trip is between $7,500.00 – $15,000.00, depending on the number of travelers in a family, the destination and activities.  To date, JNF has traveled nearly 75 families to destinations such as Los Angeles, New York City, San Francisco, Hawaii, Las Vegas, Denver, Minneapolis, Costa Rica, the Bahamas, Puerto Rico, Disney World and Disneyland, and cruise vacations.

We look forward to seeing each and every one of you at the annual White Party on May 13, 2023 when we celebrate our 11 year anniversary.
