I have to say that I will forever be grateful for my experience meeting Brenda and visiting Jackson Michigan Giving Back To The Community. She took the time to not only help me pick out some clothes that I needed for a couple upcoming interviews, but she also took the time to get to know me and to me that means so much! I wish everyone could have just a little of what she has in her heart and through her work. Thank u again for your help and making me feel good and look good!

Jackson Michigan, Giving Back to the Community is a non-profit organization, and has been a blessing to the Jackson community. Brenda founded this non-profit organization in 1991 in her basement. She moved to 1003 Clinton Rd.,, so she could better serve the community. She has many programs and services like Food Giveaways, Basic Needs, Baby Needs and Clothing Needs throughout the year on certain days and times of the month. But, if you are in need at any time, Brenda is there to help you. She also hosts special events for children. There are 4 special events in 2024. One is coming up for Spring, the others are for Back to School, Halloween and Christmas. We have been blessed to be part of these events for 2 years. We have never met anyone more loving, caring and compassionate in helping others. What a blessing Brenda and all of the volunteers are to our community. If you would like to donate, go to Jacksonmichigangivingback.org or call 517-395-4799.

Truly a gem of the Michigan non-profit endeavor, the community leaders of Jackson Michigan Giving Back are empathetic with strong values. I was honored to work alongside them at one of their community events. I felt welcome and I felt the love from kids to parents to the nonprofit in a way I hadn't seen in my entire life. We are blessed to have this organization in the community.

Jackson Giving Back is an amazing nonprofit organization that gives and shares and cares for the residents of Jackson County MI. Brenda and Britany are the amazing woman who run this organization. They spend all their time giving back to the community in so many ways. I've been volunteering there for almost a year now and it fills my heart with joy seeing what this organization does for the needy. Thank you for all that you do! We love you !

As a donor and a neighbor, I see a lot of what Brenda and her volunteers do. the help so many people each month. I have seen her got without herself just to take care of an extra family or two. In times like these with the food banks as well as personal donations cutting back. Benda still finds a way to help as many people as possible.

When I moved to Michigan in 2021, I was looking for an organization to join and support financially. After researching I contacted Jackson Giving Back. I volunteered on their Sunday event and learned hands-on about the need in the Jackson community. The flow of recipients was constate and varied. The staff greeted each with a smile and respect. I was available for several community events (back to school) and Christmas and the events were well organized and every child left with a gift. I support JMCB because I feel they are meeting the needs of the Jackson community and they are doing it with warmth and sincerity. I have seen the staff spend extra hours with a person having a "hard time". Brenda will go the extra mile to find someone shelter. To sum it up...JMGB is Great!! If not I wouldn't continue to support them.

I am so grateful for the opportunity to be a part of this amazing nonprofit. Seeing the relief in the faces of those that are served is a gift in itself. I have never seen a place that has a heart for the community like this one. Jackson Michigan Giving Back To The Community ensures that no family/individual goes hungry or without basic needs. While uniting the community threw free events. This place is truly a safe zone no one gets judged or left behind everyone is equal. With all that I am battling this place truly gives me a purpose I am so thankful and blessed to have this opportunity. Miss Brenda is an amazing women that never stops giving or smiling while doing so. She has a heart of gold and does all she can for anyone in need.

My name is Jesse Darey and I have become a recipient of Giving back to the Community.
In the small amount of time that I have known Ms Hughes & her staff ,she has been a Godsend to myself and my family. She has on numerous occasions went above and beyond anything that I could have imagined. She has encouraged and provided us with resources to help us navigate this discouraging economy as well as tapped into her personal finances to make things available for the community she serves.. She has a positive and spiritual influence on the community and is respectful to everything she serves and our community is so much better because of the sacrifices she and her staff make on a continual bases. She provides for children as well as adults and doesn't turn away anyone. We appreciate all that she does and can not say enough about the impact she has made in this community. I pray that she continues to allow GOD to utilize her gift of caring and sharing as I know that serving others is definitely her strongest and finest quality. Blessing to her and her staff for years to come. With love,honor and respect........Jesse Darey**
