Everyone who knew Pervis Jackson personally knew that along with being a star performer on stage that off stage he was a star human being. He was an extremely generous and kind-hearted man. His acceptance of and love for Pervis Jr. who was handicapped by autism knew no bounds. Pervis wanted to start a fund to help needy parents of children with disabilities to get respite or other support services.

It is in his honor that we establish the Pervis Jackson Jr. Autism Foundation.
