About this Event
Please join YASP in a memorial gathering for our team member and brother, Jetson Cruz.
Last winter, we lost a beloved member of our team, Jetson Cruz. Jet was YASP’s Creative Arts Co-Coordinator and a devoted friend, father, and youth advocate. He was a radiant light and a tireless supporter of young people, both in his life and work. He was always ready to listen, to laugh, and to fight for the world that all young people deserve.
Jet’s absence is constantly felt by our team, by the young people he led workshops with at JJSC and MOD3, by his friends and family, and especially by his partner, children, and the beautiful baby girl they welcomed into the world just last fall.
And yet, his spirit lives on in his beautiful family and our steadfast fight for youth justice and abolition. Please join YASP in celebrating Jet’s life and continuing his legacy.
We will gather in the Gaither Fellowship Hall of the Bibleway Baptist Church to share food and memories and to raise funds to support his partner and children.
We hope you will be able to join us in person and in spirit.
Jet’s partner has set up a gofundme to support his children. Please consider donating and sharing.
