Money donated to Baldwin foundation

The Golden Throne event is about more than just school spirit and basketball, with both schools playing and raising money for three charities. One charity that strikes especially close to home is Jackson’s Pay It Forward Foundation.
   The Lewiston family of Jackson Baldwin started the non-profit organization before Baldwin lost his battle with cancer. On his 10th birthday instead of asking for presents, Baldwin asked for money to help his friend in the hospital.
  His parents, Staci and Scott Baldwin began the Jackson’s Pay It Forward Foundation for children who are going through traumatic illnesses such as cancer.  
   The foundation gives the children’s families gift baskets that include money in gas cards and prepaid Visa cards, or iPads for family members to use to communicate while separated from their children.
   Wyatt Baldwin, an LHS senior, is Jackson Baldwin’s younger brother and has been involved in the foundation with his
parents.
   “This one family was very outdoorsy and they had around four kids but one of them was really sick,” he reminisced. “So they paid for a fishing trip for the whole family.”
