He sought to engage, empower, and motivate not only students and educators but society as a whole—believing that true impact came from modeling the values of connection, empowerment, and continuous growth.To honour this remarkable legacy, Jay’s family established the Jay Williams Legacy Fund. Through this fund, your gift will carry forward Jay’s vision—supporting students, teachers, and mentors, and continuing the work he began.
