The Jeannis Foundation is a 501(c)(3) public charity that strives to provide assistance, build awareness and donate in any capacity to underprivileged communities.
The Jeannis Foundation is named after McKinlay and Maynard Jeannis, first-generation Americans with Haitian heritage. Their parents migrated from Haiti in the late 1970s seeking better education and opportunities. Education was pivotal for their family's advancement, leading to the foundation's creation to provide opportunities for others in need, inspired by their family's journey and sacrifices.
