The Jack Brewer Foundation (JBF) continues to make a powerful impact in South Bay, Florida, with its ongoing food distribution efforts. On December 28 and December 31, 2024, JBF’s 2nd Chance Fathers—men who have successfully reintegrated into society after incarceration—worked alongside volunteers to distribute nearly 40,000 pounds of food to more than 1,100 families in need. This initiative not only provides vital support to the community but also underscores the positive impact of second chances, as these fathers give back to help break the cycle of poverty and incarceration.
The GEO Group, which operates the South Bay Correctional Facility, plays a key role in supporting these efforts. GEO staff and alumni of the facility volunteer each week at the food distribution, furthering the mission of rehabilitation and community reintegration. These contributions highlight the importance of collaboration in transforming lives and building stronger communities in South Bay.
