Our Impact

We help families take their next first step.

Providing expensive, medically approved equipment, even when insurance/medicaid denies it, we help make living with a disabled child or family member as easy as possible.

There is uncertainty when a disability from an injury or a serious medical diagnosis occurs. We have helped provide wheelchairs, standers, cruisers, adaptive equipment and even pool heaters!

 
 

How Can I Get Help?

Are you disabled, in need of help and living in Northeast Florida?

Do you know of someone who is in this position? JT Townsend has pledged to give back to the community that so generously helped him when he needed help most in his life.

His foundation’s vision is to pay it forward by reaching out to those that are in the position he found himself in in 2004.

I will forever be so greatful for all they have done for my sweet girl and every other life they’ve touched. This foundation is the true meaning of helping our community.

Thanks to Ms. Carmen and the J.T. Townsend Foundation. Our life is so much easier and we can go more places after being gifted a lift for our vehicle to haul my daughter’s wheelchair. The process was very simple and the customer service is top notch.
