Young Philanthropist Celebrates Ten Year Anniversary
Jahkil Jackson founded Project I Am as a way to provide necessary items to people in need. He started the organization when he was eight years old after feeling compelled to do something while he was visiting the homeless when he was five. He began packing and distributing blessing bags, filled with hygiene and care items, to people experiencing homelessness.
