The campaign is designed to give viewers a way to show their gratitude to those on the front lines through donations, and also gives a much-needed boost to hard-hit small businesses.

Jennifer Morton, vice president of nursing at Ascension St. Vincent’s Riverside, said the staff at the hospital are the most caring and compassionate people you’ll meet.
“When we get these generous donations, it really brings home for us the fact that we are not alone," Morton said. “Even though we may be isolated, we really do feel like we’re a part of the Jacksonville community right now.”
