About Us

JAMS Pals was founded in 2016 to provide support to young athletes going through surgery and recovery for sports injuries. Kids age 13 and under can be provided a "pen-pal" in the form of a collegiate or professional athlete who has also experienced an injury and understands what they're going through.​
