In this episode, Nina Waters, President of The Community Foundation for Northeast Florida, looks back on more than 30 years of community work with Judge Brian J. Davis, a federal judge and chair of The Community Foundation's Board of Trustees,  including:

• Their early years in Jacksonville – including what it was like to grow up in segregated Jacksonville
• What it means to stimulate philanthropy and promote giving by protecting donor intent
• Why Jacksonville leaders of all stripes came together to talk about race long before the 2020 killing of George Floyd
•  How The Community Foundation took on public education reform to ensure all our community’s young people could lead successful lives, no matter their family’s financial situation, their ZIP code, or their race
• How J.J. Daniel, a founder of The Community Foundation and former publisher of the Times-Union, met Judge Davis when he was a young man and helped steer the course of his life
• How The Community Foundation is approaching our next chapter as we prepare to welcome a new president
