Permanently Disabled Jockeys Fund

Elmhurst, IL 60126

The Permanently Disabled Jockeys Fund (PDJF) is a 501(c)(3) public charity based in Elmhurst, IL, dedicated to providing financial assistance to approximately 60 former jockeys who have suffered catastrophic injuries while racing. Since its establishment in 2006, the fund has disbursed nearly $14 million, supporting those with serious disabilities, primarily paralysis and brain injuries, as they navigate the challenges of daily living.

By engaging the Thoroughbred and Quarter Horse industries, along with their dedicated fans, the PDJF aims to create a self-sufficient endowment to secure long-term support for these courageous individuals. Contributions are tax-deductible and play a vital role in helping disabled jockeys manage the costs of medical care and everyday expenses.
