More Brooke Jackman Information
the Brooke Jackman Foundation, a non-profit organization that promotes literacy for at-risk children in the greater New York area, will hold its second annual Brooke Jackman Foundation Read-a-thon – public event for children and families will celebrate the positive, transformative power of literacy.
The Brooke Jackman Foundation was created 10 years ago to honor Brooke Jackman, a bright and compassionate 23-year-old avid reader who was killed in the 9/11 terrorist attacks before achieving her dream of becoming a social worker. Brookeâs passion and commitment to literacy and helping children spurred the Jackman family to create the Foundation as her living legacy â turning tragedy and despair into hope for a better world. The Brooke Jackman Foundation Read-a-thon recognizes the hope born from the tragic events of that day and celebrates the resiliency of New York City and its children.
