John Travolta Starts Charity in Honor of Late Son

It was quite a shock when John Travolta's son Jett was found dead in their vacation home in the Bahamas. And now the “Face/Off” actor has started a foundation in his honor.

According to Travolta’s website, the Jett Travolta Foundation has been set up to "assist and provide relief to children with vision, hearing, mobility, communication, behavioral learning impairments or other special medical, environmental, health or education needs."

Still reeling from their tragic loss, the Travolta family told press that they hold onto the fond memories of Jett as a means of making it through the grief they continue to feel.

"Jett was the most wonderful son that two parents could ever ask for and lit up the lives of everyone he encountered. We are heartbroken that our time with him was so brief. We will cherish the time we had with him for the rest of our lives."
