Story
Jacob Jones was a true inspiration. What he went through in his short life is more than anyone should have to deal with. That little man, however, had a smile that will live on in the hearts of all those that met him.
On Friday 13th April, Community Iron (the Braintree Town FC Academy) arranged the first JACOB JONES SMILING WITH OTHERS DAY. The academy took some children with life threatening illnesses, like Jacob's, to Paradise Wildlife Park for a day out with their families. A second day will take place later this year.
This page has been set up so that Jacob's many friends and those who knew him via social media can make a contribution towards the cost.
The Academy is also organising two Jacob Jones Fun Days. Monies raised at these events will be also used towards this worthy cause. The first took place on Sunday 1st April. The second will be on Sunday 15th July, at Braintree Sports & Health Club.

About the fundraiser
Victor Antony Bojan

Jacob bravely fought neuroblastoma cancer for over 3 years. His family did their best for him, but it was not enough. Following his passing in December 2017, when he was just 5 years old, we want to preserve his memory. Smiling With Others Days is one way in which we can do this.
