The Jae Foundation exists to create boot-check moments - moments where we put down the distractions of life to reach out and really check in on how those near us are really doing. The Foundation was created with the idea that if Jae’s friend Jason had just slowed down and bought his buddy Jae a pair of Cowboy Boots (something Jae loved dearly) and had a real conversation about how he was doing, things could have been different. The Foundation is having an impact on mental health and suicide prevention/awareness through creating boot-check moments throughout the intermountain region, and beyond.
