JT Gives Back

Helping Florida’s First Coast children and adults with disabilities

Through this Foundation, we plan to better the lives of others with disabilities.

Our mission is to help families living right here on our First Coast, with children and adults with disabilities, by providing adaptive equipment or comprehensive financial assistance.We help families take the next first step by providing expensive medically approved equipment available to make living with a disabled child or family member as easy as possible even when insurance /medicaid denies payment. We have helped with wheelchair ramps, standers, cruisers and even pool heaters!We understand the uncertainty that accompanies a disability from an injury or a serious medical diagnosis. And, we are here to help you focus on your child or family members well being not the financial burden you face.

Our staff is waiting to help you quickly and efficiently with your needs.

JT’s story

We appreciate your interest in JTTF. Through this Foundation, we plan to better the lives of others with disabilities. My family and I were very blessed to have the support of our extended family, friends, and the Jacksonville community. For me and my family, giving back is a heartfelt and passionate endeavor. It is our hope that

"Every day in life we are presented with choices. What we do with those choices determines who we are in life. I can’t change what happened to me but with the right choices I can change the lives of others. We all have a purpose in life and true success comes when we realize our purpose. I think the two most important days in our lives are the day we were born and the day we realize why we were born. I now have a vision and a purpose and with the grace of God I have strength, courage and determination. Thank you and God bless you and all those less fortunate than us." ...JT Townsend
