Description
Run for Jackson • Race for Miracles
Lace up for A Race for Jackson, a 5K (3.1 miles) on March 21st, 2026 at Lady Bird Johnson Park — where every step brings Jackson closer to his miracle.
Jackson is an eleven-year-old boy who has faced major medical challenges since birth and spent years searching for a diagnosis. In 2023, doctors determined he needed a life-saving intestinal transplant. After multiple complications and life-support interventions, Jackson was officially listed for transplant and now waits for the green light to undergo surgery.
By joining the race, you’re not just running —
🏃♂️ You’re helping Jackson go the distance.
🎽 You’re supporting his strength, courage, and continued healing.
💙 You’re part of his team on the road to recovery.
This event proudly supports the Children’s Organ Transplant Association (COTA) in honor of Jackson. Funds raised help cover transplant-related expenses, travel, and the ongoing resources Jackson needs to keep fighting.
The Jacobs family is deeply grateful for every stride, donation, prayer, and act of kindness that brings hope and miracles to Jackson’s journey.
Thank you for being part of a miracle — let’s run for hope, run for strength, and run for Jackson!
