The mission of The Harvey Bernhardt Foundation is to provide one-time financial assistance for hardship cases related to medical or natural disasters, victims of crime or other tragedies. Recipients must be citizens living and working in the North Florida community. Recipients are referred by members of the community and work with the foundation to determine the best course of action.
A gift of cash allows you to receive an income tax deduction and enables you to help meet the immediate needs of families in your community. Gifts of cash may be pledged and fulfilled over a period of time.
