We are proud to help fuel our 150-year-old mission of caring! Each contribution to UF Health Jacksonville makes a difference in the lives of our patients.

National Philanthropy Day reminds us of the incredible impact philanthropists have in shaping healthier, stronger communities. Their generosity fuels innovation, supports patients, and inspires hope for countless lives. Today, we celebrate those who give selflessly to make a difference.

One of those inspiring individuals is Patric Young — a former UF Health Jacksonville patient, Jacksonville native, and founder of the Patric Young Foundation. After a life-changing spinal cord injury in 2022, Patric turned his journey into a mission of faith, gratitude, and perseverance. At A Night for Heroes, he shared his powerful story, challenging us all to see our own lives through a lens of resilience and kicked off our live appeal. Beyond his words, Patric’s foundation donated a MyoCycle FES Bike, giving patients with neurological conditions the ability to regain strength and mobility.

Thank you, Patric, for your unwavering commitment to helping others and for showing what true philanthropy looks like.

Did you know there are three types of strokes: Ischemic caused by a clot that blocks blood flow to the brain, hemorrhagic caused by a rupture and Transient Ischemic Attack (TIS) or “warning stroke” caused by a temporary blockage. About 87% of strokes are ischemic strokes. Many strokes can be prevented through healthy lifestyle changes and working with your health care team to control health conditions that raise your risk for stroke.

Truth: Any sized gift in your will can make a big impact for the nonprofits you care about.

Truth: Life is unpredictable. Adults of all ages should have a will to protect loved ones and causes they support.

Fact 2: Legacy gifts can support scholarships, medical research, community programs, and more.
