Our Story

A love that keeps growing

Lucky's Love Foundation began with a family's love and a promise to keep showing up for others.

In Loving Memory

Jaderian Malik “Lucky” Bush

To everyone who loved him, he was simply Lucky. His name is the reason we show up — for grieving families, for young people looking for a way forward, and for a community that deserves to be safe.

This foundation is his memory carried into action: love that does not stay still, but keeps reaching for the people who need it most.

Forever in our hearts

Our Founder

Tequila Bush-Jones

Tequila Bush-Jones founded Lucky’s Love Foundation to turn grief into something that serves others. Under her leadership, the foundation supports families through loss, opens conversations about mental health, works to prevent gun violence, and invests in young people through mentorship and scholarships.

Her vision is simple and steady: honor lives, support families, empower youth, and build safer communities and brighter futures — one family, one student, one conversation at a time.

“Protect What You Love. Safe homes. Safe conversations. Safe futures. You Are Not Alone.”

Our Mission

Honoring lives. Supporting families. Empowering youth.

We exist to help families heal, to keep young people encouraged, and to make our community safer for everyone who lives here.

Love

Love is the reason this foundation exists, and the way we treat every family who comes to us.

Healing

Healing is not a straight line. We stay present for the long road, at the family's pace.

Community

Safer communities are built together — neighbors, parents, schools, churches, and young people.

Hope

Hope is practical: a scholarship, a mentor, a listening ear, a reason to keep going.

Our Promise

Protect What You Love

Safe homes. Safe conversations. Safe futures.

You Are Not Alone.
