From Jax

Good Morning, Jacksonville. Did you know, when Martin’s Coffee first started in the late 1950’s, every morning, they brewed hundreds of metal kegs filled with coffee and delivered them to offices all over downtown Jacksonville. By afternoon, they were back to collect the empty carafes, ready to do it all over again the next day. Talk about a daily grind! 🥁

In Today's Issue

  • Free Yoga and Photo Walk
  • Taste a bit of Turkey in Today's Treat
  • One million diapers distributed!

Let's get to it!

⬇️ Nonprofit Highlight

Crystal Parks founded the Diaper Bank for Northeast Florida in October 2019 after discovering the dire need for diapers in our community. Shocked to learn that WIC and SNAP benefits don’t cover diapers, she set out to make a difference.

Fast forward to July this year, and the Diaper Bank hit a monumental milestone—one million diapers distributed to families in Northeast Florida! Find out more about their mission or how to get involved.


Civic Events

City Council meets tomorrow Aug 27th at 5pm. On the docket: the Mayor’s appointments and budget.
