Through programs and strategic partnerships, Dear Jack addresses the physical and emotional needs of AYA cancer patients, survivors and their families. One-on-one patient support and wellness programs allow the Dear Jack Foundation to empower patients, survivors and their caregivers in their healing and to provide assurance that they are not alone in their cancer journey.

ABOUT ANDREW MCMAHON:
Over the last two decades, Andrew McMahon has successfully experienced musical rebirth many times and has consistently arrived on the other side stronger than ever. The East Coast-born, Southern California-based artist first co-founded the pop-punk outfit Something Corporate in 1998, serving as the group’s singer, pianist, and songwriter and leading the band to major chart success in the early 2000s via such albums as 2002’s Leaving Through The Window and 2003’s North (2003). Soon after, McMahon resurfaced with the more personal solo project Jack’s Mannequin, finding success through three studio albums, with 2005’s RIAA Gold-certified debut, Everything In Transit, followed by 2008’s The Glass Passenger and 2011’s People and Things, both of which arrived among the top 10 on the Billboard 200. In 2014, McMahon released his debut album under his own name and new moniker, Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness, featuring the breakout top 5 alternative radio singles, “Cecilia and the Satellite” and “Fire Escape.” Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness has since released a series of hook-packed albums, including 2017’s Zombies On Broadway, 2018’s Upside Down Flowers, and most recently, 2023’s Tilt at the Wind No More, amassing over 325 million total streams to date. With total career sales now in excess of 2.5 million across all of his musical projects, McMahon has performed at such marquee festivals as Coachella, Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits, Riot Fest, and Firefly, and toured alongside the likes of Weezer, Panic! at the Disco, Dashboard Confessional, and one of McMahon’s idols, Billy Joel. McMahon has also received an Emmy Award nomination for his work on the NBC show, Smash, and in October 2021, released his memoir, Three Pianos.
