Jump Because I'm Me! 11/24/2009
"I decided to use inspiration from jumpbecause for my self-portrait. Sort of like 'I jump because I'm me!' The little circle things inside are things I've done, events in my life, and maybe even labels I would give myself/other people would call me. The point is that everything I've done is a part of me, flowing through the interior like veins or a map of my life. I thought the jumpbecause position was perfect because I think it says that I'm happy with who I am, the good and the bad, look at me! I hope you enjoy!" - Lizzie Auburn, Alabama Jump for getting married! 10/11/2009

In November of 2011, we asked jumpers to submit a photo that kept the spirit of Thanksgiving and this quote in mind:
"We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures." -Thornton Wilder This photo above, sent in by Rick from Utah, was chosen as the winner of this JB Challenge + Contest! His submission features his family, who was celebrating their first Christmas together in 5 years. As Rick put it, "That was a moment worth jumping." The complete story behind the jump and the original post can be viewed here. Current Favorite Jump:
A wonderful JumpBecause story: Jump Because... For a Cause!
In June 2010, JumpBecause hosted a Potluck-for-a-Cause fundraiser to raise money for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. People brought amazing food, made fun crafts, participated in a raffle, and listened to great local music... and of course JUMPED! Check out the highlights of our fundraiser on the "Causes" page.
