What We Do

Four promises we keep to our community

Lucky's Love Foundation is built on steady, practical care — the kind that shows up long after the headlines move on.

Grief Support & Family Healing

Walking beside families through the long months after loss — with compassion, practical help, and room to remember.

Mental Health Awareness

Opening the conversation about mental health, reducing stigma, and pointing families toward the support they deserve.

Gun Violence Prevention

Building safer communities before a tragedy, through awareness, education, and honest conversation.

Youth Mentorship & Empowerment

Connecting young people with caring adults who encourage their goals, their studies, and their confidence.

Our Story

Built in love, carried by a family

Lucky’s Love Foundation carries the name and the spirit of Jaderian Malik “Lucky” Bush. Founded by Tequila Bush-Jones, the foundation turns a family’s grief into steady support for other families, and into opportunity for young people who need someone in their corner.

We believe healing is possible, that a safe home and an honest conversation can change a life, and that no family should have to walk this road alone.

You Are Not Alone.

Our Programs

Where our love turns into action

From grief support to mentorship and prevention, every program is designed to meet families where they are.

Grief Support & Family Healing

Grief does not end with the funeral. We stay with families through the hard months that follow, offering a steady presence and someone who will listen.

Mental Health Awareness

Healing the heart and the mind belong together. We work to open the conversation about mental health in our community and to reduce the stigma that keeps people silent.

Gun Violence Prevention

Safer communities are built before a tragedy, not only after one. Our prevention work centers on awareness, education, and protecting the people we love. Orange accents throughout this site are worn in recognition of gun violence awareness.

Youth Mentorship & Empowerment

Young people thrive when someone believes in them. Our mentorship connects youth with caring adults who encourage their goals, their studies, and their confidence.
