A Life That Continues To Impact Others

In October 2016, Matt Roeder and his 17-year-old son, Jace, were involved in a tragic car accident that took Jace’s life. What followed was unimaginable grief, but also a decision to continue Jace’s spirit of kindness, compassion and service through meaningful action.

Today, the Jace D. Roeder Foundation exists to support children, families, students and organizations through scholarships, charitable giving and community outreach.
