Jump Because... For a Cause!

In March 2009, we posted a series of very special jumps: "Jump Because - For a Cause". These jumps were brought to JumpBecause by Virginia Commonwealth University undergraduates. The goals for these "Jump Because - For A Cause!" photos are to raise awareness and possibly funds for the chosen causes. Please see our "Causes" page for more info, or check out all of the photos here: JumpBecause - For a Cause!
