BEAMBEAM is a community based organization serving low income residents in Jacksonville’s beaches communities and relying heavily on community support to assist our neighbors in time of need. We envision a future in which no beaches resident goes hungry or is haunted by the fear of eviction.
|
BEAM helps make a difference in the lives of those in need in our community. We would not be able to provide these families with hope and help if it was not for our amazing volunteers. We rely on more than 200 outstanding volunteers who commit to volunteering every week in support of our daily operations. These weekly volunteers support our food pantries, food bank, thrift stores, senior program, front desk, and financial assistance areas.
Additionally, BEAM is fortunate to have hundreds more volunteers who help with special projects such as outreach events, fundraisers, food drives, and more.
Volunteer with BEAM and connect with others who are working to make a difference in our local community!

First Coast Women's ServicesEvery day we serve women without hope who feel they are out of options. Desperate for a quick fix for their perceived crisis, they turn to us for answers and support.

At First Coast Women’s Services, our first line of defense is always prayer. You can join alongside us in regularly praying for our clients by joining our Prayer Text Team. You can also participate in our annual Sanctity of Human Life times of prayer around the city.

Sober Living AmericaFor the past 50 years, individuals with no money or no insurance have been denied help in America. In 1994, our Founder, Jim deVarennes, had seen enough. After getting clean and sober, and seeing what recovery was like firsthand, he left his successful insurance career to start Peachford House. It was the first of its kind and provided residential recovery to people suffering from addiction, regardless of their ability to pay. The first location was a 5-bed facility in Atlanta, which quickly grew to 60 beds becoming one of the largest facilities in Georgia. Peachford's leadership team quickly realized that many recovering addicts faced major obstacles in obtaining employment. They added a jobs program, including Career Advocates, to assist in job readiness and placement, as well as transportation services and a life skills program.
