In Loving Memory Of
Jade Lee Marasigan

A 501(c)(3) Non-Profit Organization Created to Host Fundraiser Events to Support Adolescent Mental Health and Suicide Awareness

Our Mission

Play For Jade Events Inc. is an endeavor created by the parents of Jade Lee Marasigan who tragically lost her battle with Major Depressive Disorder and Social Anxiety. As a registered California non-profit, we are hosting fundraiser events as a tribute to Jade and to help raise awareness of the importance of teen mental health and suicide prevention. Net profits will go directly to the Jade Lee Marasigan Charitable Fund at the Northridge Hospital Foundation. The Charity provides individual guidance for families, accessibility to treatment, and financial assistance for those at-risk patients who are in need of continuation of care for their mental health.

BINGO! IS COMING THIS SUMMER!

We hosted the 2nd Annual Play For Jade Golf Fundraiser on April 22, 2024 at the DeBell Golf Club in Burbank CA. 

The weather was perfect for golf — cool and overcast in the morning, warming up with sunshine by noon. It was a smaller group this year compared to last, but it didn't stop us from having fun day out on the course with some amazingly supportive people! Thank you to all who participated and to all the corporaste sponsors who contributed raffle and auction items! We raised over $17,000 and will be donating the net proceeds to Jade's Charity!

Jade's Uncle Crossed the Ironman 70.3 Finish Line in the Philippines!

On June 11, 2023, Don Raphael Parcon Marasigan competed in the Ironman 70.3 Race in Subic Bay, Philippines. As a tribute to his beloved niece, members of the extended Marasigan Family to pledge their support for Don through Play For Jade Events Inc. $703 will be donated to the Jade Lee Marasigan Charitable Fund.

An Ironman 70.3, also known as a "Half Ironman," is one of a series of long-distance triathlon races organized by the World Triathlon Corporation (WTC). The "70.3" refers to the total distance in miles (113.0 km) covered in the race, consisting of a 1.2-mile (1.9 km) swim, a 56-mile (90 km) bike ride, and a 13.1-mile (21.1 km) run. It was a physical and mental challenge through rough waters, rain, and road puddles that Don faced with Jade as his inspiration and motivation to finish strong. He finished in the Top 10 of the Men's 50-54 year old group!

The staff there was phenomenal and we tallied a total of almost $4000 in meals of which 20% was donated to the Jade Lee Marasigan Charitable Fund! Jade's Uncle Rudy, who works at Costco in Florida, even ordered a couple of pizza's for colleagues at the warehouse in Northridge, CA! Amazing!
