LIVE BIG LIKE JACK
The Live Big Like Jack Memorial Scholarship was created to help good kids take the next step after high school — whether that means college, the trades, military service, certifications, entrepreneurship, or building a life with their own two hands.
Jack believed life was meant to be lived fully:
work hard, laugh loud, help people, chase experiences, and never sit on the sidelines.
This scholarship exists to carry that mindset forward.
We’re here for the kids figuring it out.
The ones willing to show up early.
Stay late.
Learn skills.
Take risks.
Build something meaningful.
And create a life they’re proud of.
Because success doesn’t only come from a classroom.
Sometimes it starts in a shop.
On a jobsite.
In a garage.
Behind a welding hood.
Or with an idea and enough grit to chase it.
Every donation helps fund opportunities, tools, training, certifications, tuition, and real-world next steps for students ready to go build their future.
Live big.
Work hard.
Take the shot.
Carry people with you.
That’s the mission.
