4ShayJ Foundation

A nonprofit organization

4ShayJ Foundation provides safety helmets and promotes safety awareness to underprivileged children. Our goal is to help children understand the importance of wearing safety gear, take responsibility for their own safety, and encourage their peers to do the same.

One Tragedy. Thousands Protected. Will you be part of the change?

On March 31, 2015, our world shattered. Our son, Shaun Jr. (ShayJ), was skateboarding when his board slipped. He stepped into the street to grab it and was struck by a car. But it wasn't the impact that took his life-it was his head hitting the pavement without a helmet.

From that loss, 4ShayJ was born to protect kids from preventable tragedy.

We visit schools across the valley, teaching kids why helmets matter. Many think they're not cool or simply can't afford them. We change that.

✔️ We tell ShayJ's story, making safety real.
✔️ We provide FREE helmets to kids in need.
✔️ We empower students to encourage their friends to wear helmets, too.

⭐ Since 2015, we've:
✅ Spoken to 500,000+ students
✅ Given away 37,000+ helmets
✅ Saved countless lives

Your support means more kids protected, more lives saved, and a safer future.

⭐ $25 will give a child a helmet and life-saving education.
⭐ $100 helps provide helmets and safety education for multiple students.
⭐ $500+ allows us to equip an entire grade level with helmets.

No child should die from a preventable accident. Give today. Save a life. Let's protect kids.

Their mission has not only changed lives but has also fostered a culture of safety and responsibility among our students. We've seen an overwhelming increase in helmet use, with kids proudly embracing the importance of protecting themselves.

As an educator, I cannot emphasize enough how much this program has meant to our children and their families. The generous donation of helmets, combined with the life-saving education they provide, has created a lasting impact.
