We’re honored to announce the 4th Annual Markert Strong Scholarship, created in memory of Jackson Markert and the legacy he left behind.

Established to honor a student who reflects the qualities Jackson lived by — kindness, integrity, perseverance, and a heart for others — this scholarship allows his spirit of giving back to live on.

This past week, we provided gifts to Medical City Children’s Hospital in Dallas to kids who will be inpatient during this year on Christmas. It means a lot to us to have the support to be able to do this, and we are so grateful for our volunteers (who are also Jackson’s friends) for delivering these gifts. This is something we’ve been doing ever since Jackson spent Christmas at that same hospital back in 2010.

Thank you to all of the people who have donated to Markert Strong this year, allowing us to carry on Jackson’s legacy of kindness and giving. Your generosity allows us to continue the mission of helping families who are impacted by child loss and childhood cancer.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, from all of us here at Markert Strong 🎄🎅🏼🎗️

In case you missed us Sunday — come see us at the Avenue Church from 5:30pm-7pm!

In honor of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month and Jackson’s 18th birthday, we will be selling shirts for $18 to continue our mission to help families battling childhood cancer. We will also be selling hoodies for $26, since Jackson would have been graduating high school with the class of 2026 this year.

As always, 100% of the proceeds will go towards our scholarship fund, Christmas initiative, and helping local families battling childhood cancer, child loss, and other similar hardships.

Thank you for your continued support!
