Jaxon Manuel is a first-year law student at Loyola University New Orleans who was just finishing up his first semester in law school when a sudden house fire on December 15th turned his life upside down. In a matter of minutes, the fire caused major damage and destroyed many of his personal belongings.

The fire created unexpected expenses and instability at a time when Jaxon should be focused on studying and building his future. He would never ask for help on his own, but right now he needs support to replace essentials and stay on track.

If you’d like to help, any amount — big or small — truly makes a difference. This site doesn’t charge platform fees, but payment processors may take a small portion. You can also send support directly via Venmo at @jaxon-manuel.

Jaxon has always shown up for others with kindness and perseverance. We’re hoping to show up for him now and help ease the weight of this difficult moment.

Thank you for supporting Jaxon.
