NEWSFLASH: Cancer is not new, so why face it alone?
Jackie has been with Imerman Angels since 2012. She has been a caregiver to several loved ones with cancer, including her sister who is currently fighting stage 4 breast cancer and is a Lynch syndrome carrier. Jackie has also dealt with a personal skin cancer diagnosis herself. Losing many family members to cancer, and caring for them, has fueled her passion for the Imerman Angels’ mission.
As Director of Partnerships and Engagement, Herigodt oversees the Mentor Angel training process, all community events and the organization’s outreach and engagement efforts. Jackie was responsible for the creation of the outreach initiative at Imerman Angels.
Additionally, she established the global Ambassador initiative, comprised of volunteers who dedicated their time to spread awareness about the Imerman Angels’ mission. Her professional goals are to continue fostering a strong and diverse cancer community; strengthen partnerships with cancer organizations, cancer centers, hospitals and even speaking on my Youtube channel; and to expand IA’s reach to ensure no one faces cancer alone.
Jackie holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Northeastern Illinois University. She has worked in the fields of animal training, customer service and education. Her diverse background has proven beneficial for her role with Imerman Angels.
Imerman Angels is a 501(c)(3) started in 2006 by Jonny Imerman, who is a Testicular cancer Survivor himself and understood the need to speak to someone who had been in his shoes. Imerman was recognized as a CNN Hero in 2012 which began the launch of the organization's global status of now being in 123 countries and connecting more than 80,000 people around the world to all different cancer types. The mission of Imerman Angels is to provide comfort and understanding for all cancer fighters, survivors, previvors and caregivers through a personalized, one-on-one connection with someone who has been there.
