FAQs
Question
Are there digital ways to send Jay a gift?
Answer
Yes—thank you so much for thinking of Jay! He has several digital payment options available for anyone who would like to bless him as he prepares for this next chapter. He accepts Venmo, Apple Pay, and Zelle and we’ll also have a gift table and card box available at the graduation party. Apple Pay and Zelle- 614-648-9948-JAMARION All gifts will go directly toward supporting Jay as he heads to college—covering things like essentials, supplies, and everyday needs. He’s incredibly grateful, and I’ll be helping him manage those funds responsibly as he steps into young adulthood. Your support means the world to us!
Question
Do you have to attend and RSVP to all the events?
Answer
You may come and go as you feel. We ask that you RSVP to the requested events so we have an accurate headcount for food.

What are Jay's Plans after High School?
Answer
A: Jay has big plans and an even bigger heart for creativity! He’s already been accepted to several colleges and has received a couple of scholarships along the way—which we’re incredibly proud of. While he’s still deciding, Jay is hoping to attend a school in a warmer climate where he can grow both academically and creatively. He has a strong passion for content creation, and is especially interested in social media, marketing, digital storytelling, and all things TikTok and YouTube.
