Give Back. Spread Kindness. Make an Impact.
This holiday season, the Chris V. Brown Foundation invites our Jacksonville community to come together and make a difference for local students and families in need.
From November 5 through December 14, 2026, we're collecting non-perishable food donations to help provide essential food items to families throughout our community. Every contribution, big or small, helps spread kindness and make the holiday season a little brighter.
