Mission
At JDF's Joy Project, we honor the memory of a loving father lost to COVID-19 by giving back to the community. Over five years, we have raised $25,000 and helped over 275 children with gifts, toys, books, and coats, ensuring joy during Christmas. We want to continue to spread the joy, which is part of his lasting legacy!
JDF, Joseph Daniel Floyd, "Danny", J. Daniel, Dad, Poppa, Dan the Man
He was a lot of things to a lot of people. He grew up with very little, worked hard for everything he achieved, and built a life defined by generosity and joy. An accountant by trade, but a memory-maker at heart. He believed in smart decisions, but he also believed in taking the trip, buying the special thing, and celebrating the moments that make life meaningful.
He taught us that success is a tool, not a trophy. He taught us to use what we have for good, to give more than we take, and to pay attention to the people that need a hand. He lived with the kind of steady kindness that created ripple effects.
Every opportunity we have to give back to others carries a piece of his legacy.
