Coach Coughlin’s Leadership Team
A bold circle of supporters who fuel our mission.
What It Is
Coach Coughlin’s Leadership Team includes individuals, families and organizations who pledge $1,000 or more to our year-end appeal. Their commitment helps sustain our work all year long.
These leadership donors are grouped into tiers based on giving levels:
- All Pro — $10,000 or more
- MVP — $5,000 to $9,999
- Captain — $2,500 to $4,999
- Starter — $1,000 to $2,499
Why It Matters / Benefits
Members of the Leadership Team receive special recognition and insider access. They are featured in the Jay Fund newsletter, acknowledged at our signature events and receive updates from Coach Coughlin during the year.
Because of their generosity, we are able to reach more families facing childhood cancer and strengthen our impact.
Driven by Compassion, United by Hope
Meet the people working behind the scenes to support Jay Fund families.
We believe no family should face the unthinkable alone. Our team works daily to provide critical grants, scholarships, and household support to families in Jacksonville and the NY/NJ Metro area. Below, you’ll find the leadership and staff dedicated to turning Coach Coughlin’s vision, and Jay McGillis’s legacy, into a lifeline for families in crisis.
