Community Leadership • Help Memphis
Leadership & Impact
Jack is an inspiring fifth grader in the Memphis area who loves academics, sports, reading, theater, and sloths.
After noticing classmates struggling with food access at school, and inspired by his family’s long tradition of giving back to the Memphis community, Jack decided to act. Because he loves to read, he was inspired by the Little Free Library model and believed a similar neighborhood-based idea could help families access food and baby essentials more easily.
Through Help Memphis, Jack is turning compassion into action with a youth-led vision to place community pantries across the city and expand that impact over time.
