Drake Everett Walker Foundation

Drake Everett Walker Foundation We accomplish this goal through active participation in missions and by prov WHO IS DRAKE EVERETT WALKER ANYWAY?? Drake was a 12 year old dynamo!

The Drake Everett Walker Foundation is a Christ centered non-profit organization that exists to spread the love of God and His message of Salvation through his son Jesus Christ. On most days he could be found climbing trees, catching frogs...and turtles...and snakes....and building forts. But that was just a small part of a typical day with Drake because his motor never stopped running until his h

ead hit his pillow! He loved to hunt and fish and always chose outside adventures over being in the house. When asked by those who knew him best, Drake has been described as a kind soul, a great friend, a role model, a defender of the weak, and a leader. He had an infectious smile, and knew how to break the awkwardness that preteens often experience. In his own words....He was a Beast! Drake accepted Christ as his Lord and Savior when he was 8 years old and on September 1st 2012 during Hurricane Isaac God called him home. He had a love for others and a heart for Jesus. Drake loved his church and was looking forward to a family mission trip in Haiti that was planned for the summer of 2013. Our hope is to honor the memory of Drake by creating an organization that will impact the Kingdom of God in the same big way that he impacted his community. All of our fundraising activities and products are based on Drake's favorite color, sports, activities, and family traditions. We currently have T-Shirts and Bracelets that are inspired by Drake's favorite color, scripture, and the motto that was adopted by his fellow classmates. DI4D- Do It 4 Drake. They knew Drake's character and zeal for life and use DI4D to remind them to always stand for righteousness and live life to the fullest! Phillippians 4:13 was Drake's favorite memory verse and says "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Drake held tightly to this scripture and applied it to his life in everything he did.

💚 Hi Y’all! 💚

The Drake Everett Walker - Warm Coats 4 Cold Kids Coat Drive is Here!

November 1st - December 11th

In memory of Drake, let’s continue to press on, press in, and help those in need during the coldest, and most expensive months of the year. If you have a new or gently used coat that you’d like to donate, no matter the size or gender, I would love to gather it to donate to our local schools, orphans, homeless, women’s shelter, and men’s outreach program.

I also take donations to shop for coats if you would like that option. Please make the check out to The Drake Everett Walker Foundation. I can either pick up your donation or if you wish to send a check, you’re welcome to mail it to me, just inbox or text me for my new address and I will make sure to get coats on behalf of you for this cause.

As many of you know, this tradition is something that I started with my boys when they were young and I have continued in memory of Drake. I look so forward to this drive every year when you and I get to band together as friends, and bless so many children, teens, and adults with a free coat to help keep them warm during the winter season, who might otherwise go cold. The need is great, so let’s clean out all our closets and see what can go! If your local business would like to participate as a drop-off point, please let me know and I will make everyone aware. I would really appreciate any help in that area, if at all possible!

In His Grip,
Jamie

Happy 23rd Birthday Drake, baby. We miss you too much. I love these few memories that I was able to gather and share this morning of you enjoying life to it’s fullest, son. There are simply no words. Today we will remember you big, like every other day, but today like the past 11 years now, we will pause and remember the day God blessed the world with your life and amazing spirit. Your life, laughter, dramatic joy and energy continue to be missed. We can’t thank God enough for the blessing of giving us 12 precious years with you! You’re still a beacon of light to all who knew you. We love you so much Drake Everett💚 Celebrate big and with all your might in your heavenly places! I can’t believe your 23! That’s simply unbelievable.

Love and tears,
Momma
