 "We are jumping to celebrate a bride-to-be! The bride (second from the left) and her bridesmaids (the rest of us) live in different cities and know each other from entirely different parts of our lives, but we are all jumping together because we are out of our SKINS excited about her wedding!" - Elizabeth, Lissa (the bride-to-be!), Kori, and Annalee Atlanta, Georgia Add Comment 
"I'm a Jumpin' Addict. This one is in Savannah, Ga. I'm usually behind the camera but came out from behind it for this one~ couldn't resist the sparkling lights of the Marquee~ It was right after a tour of one of the most haunted spots in the city & the streets were deserted... I was feeling extremely happy to be alive after mingling with the ghosts of the Sorrel Weed house!" -Ali Savannah, Georgia   "H., 3, jumps for Sarah, summer rain, and muddy landings!" - Meghan Georgia  We jump to celebrate the beauty of the North Georgia mountains and time well spent with family." - Kevin and Christine Lakemont, Georgia  "We jump because we climbed to the top of Stone Mountain - after celebrating the wedding of our 83 year old grandmother to her high school sweetheart!" - Austin and Will, November 2009 Stone Mountain, Georgia    "My friends & I jumped because we were excited to reunite after a long year apart on Cinco de Mayo at Piedmont Park in Atlanta, Georgia!" -Deborah, jumper furthest to the right & initiator of our jumping snapshots!

 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.

Jump Because was interviewed for the Michigan State University Alumni Magazine (Winter 2010 issue, p. 15).
One of Jump Because's founders attended MSU as an undergraduate and we're all proud to see JB featured among other Spartan news!  Jump Because in
