The Jessie Ball duPont Fund – one of several long-established Jacksonville institutions that played a key role in bringing LISC to Jacksonville nearly 25 years ago – is generously matching all donations made to LISC Jacksonville between November 1 and December 31!
This is your opportunity to double your impact on Jacksonville’s most under-resourced communities! Donations will allow LISC Jacksonville to directly impact issues relative to heirs’ property, home repair, down payment assistance on homes, and further address appraisal bias.
The Jessie Ball duPont Fund was one of four organizations that came together in 1999 to invite LISC – the largest community development support organization in the country at the time – to bring its model to Jacksonville, essentially founding LISC Jacksonville. In 2023, LISC Jacksonville made a commitment at the beginning of the year to have a fiscal impact of $20 million in the communities we serve. Year-to-date, we are proud to say we are at $24 million!
With this matching opportunity from the Jessie Ball duPont Fund, we are on track to have even greater impact within our most challenged communities this year!
