One of the first philanthropic initiatives of the Khan family in Jacksonville was a million dollar commitment to the City of Jacksonville to create the Jacksonville Veterans Resource and Reintegration Center at City Hall . In its first three years of operation , the Center has supported hundreds of men , women and their families as they transition back to civilian life .
As part of our partnership with the City of Jacksonville , the Jaguars Foundation provides grants to local non-profit organizations to help the center ’ s clients receive the additional support they need .
