Conservation Work Grounded in Real Experience
Jason's path to founding C47G, Inc. came directly from years spent in environmental compliance, studying habitat loss up close. Where larger organizations focus on bigger land tracts, C47G targets the smaller parcels that often get overlooked. That gap-filling approach lets the foundation complement what state agencies and other non-profits are already doing, building a more connected wildlife corridor one property at a time.
C47G measures its progress simply: how many properties are in the conservation portfolio. Jason funds the foundation personally and through a profit share program tied to his companies, keeping the mission financially grounded rather than dependent on outside pressure. He envisions the organization eventually expanding beyond Florida and transitioning to public donation support as its reach grows.
Giving Back Has Always Been the Foundation
Long before C47G existed, Jason was showing up for his community in quieter ways. He mentored young people through Big Brothers Big Sisters, hired veterans, and built second chance opportunities into his businesses for people who needed a fresh start. That history of one-to-one investment in people is the same instinct that now drives larger efforts like beach cleanups and hiking trail maintenance.
Jason is especially focused on connecting urban youth to wild places, believing that firsthand experience with ecology changes how people think about the natural world. Through the C47G website and his own blog, he shares wildlife and ecology content meant to spark that curiosity. It's community engagement built on the belief that understanding nature is the first step toward protecting it.
