The AnnieRuth Foundation was established in 2012. This 501(c)3 organization is named after Ruth Kearney, the grandmother of Founder, Dee Wilcox. Its purpose is to serve as a catalyst of positive change in underserved communities.
The foundation focuses on education, health initiatives, and economic development. Our goal is to equip participants with knowledge and skills to assist with making healthy life choices; thus empowering them to become positive contributors to society. Our programs offer viable solutions to problems that negatively impact individuals, the family unit and the community as a whole; problems that if unaddressed will negatively impact future generations.
The AnnieRuth Foundation has a deep commitment to the personal, educational and professional achievement of those we serve.
To strengthen underserved communities by providing services and resources in an effort to educate, enrich and empower families on the First Coast.
To be a catalyst of positive change in underserved communities.
Passionate (we believe that “passion” drives one to do their best work; we are passionate about making a positive difference in the lives of those we serve)
Respect (we believe that every soul deserves to be treated with dignity; therefore we handle every interaction with the highest level of respect)
Equality (we believe that we are neither above nor beneath anyone else regardless of race, ethnicity, religion or gender; we are all human beings seeking to make this world a better place of which to live)
Accountable (we believe that each person should be held accountable for their actions; making no excuses but a commitment to do better)
Committed (we believe that programs should be solution-oriented and results driven; therefore we are committed to continuously evaluating our programs ensuring that they are suitable for those we serve)
Sowing seeds, strengthening communities
Many thanks to the AnnieRuth Foundation for providing such a great program for our area’s youth. We look forward to working with your organization and another summer intern in the future.
The passionate work of the AnnieRuth Foundation continues to build and strengthen the city of Jacksonville. We are better because of you!
I am blessed to be a part of this organization and volunteer with many individuals who take the time to help those in need. It just warms my heart to see smiles and expressions of gratitude of children, parents and elderly that we serve in local communities!
