Strengthen the Jacksonville Community

Sunshine Recreation brings people together across all ability levels, fostering inclusion and awareness. By investing in our programs, you help create a more compassionate, connected Jacksonville — one where everyone has a seat at the table.
Empower People with Disabilities

Sunshine Recreation breaks down barriers that prevent individuals with physical, cognitive, or developmental disabilities from participating in recreation and social activities. Your donation directly funds programs that give people the chance to build confidence, develop life skills, and experience the joy of athletic achievement.
Help Launch Something Brand New

Early donors have a rare opportunity to be founding supporters — helping build the foundation of a program from the ground up. Your gift at this stage carries outsized impact, as it directly enables us to get off the ground and serve our very first participants.
