Description

The Tony Meduri TBI Fund Inc. was founded January 2015 in honor of retired police officer, Tony Meduri who was hit from behind by an uninsured, drugged driver and suffered a TBI and was no longer able to lead a normal life and needed 24/7 care. Tony recently passed on. We have grown every year since our first event, expecting 3000 this year and we will continue in his honor to help others suffering from TBI. This is a fun, family friendly event with a 5k and 1 mile fun run and pie eating contest. We need lots of help on the race course! We also support military and police, and TBI survivors are FREE to participate in the 5k GIVE BACK and GIVE THANKS!!!!

I know the person who runs this organization and she is one the sweetest persons you would ever meet. Thank you for helping out with the TBI community here in Jacksonville, Florida. I know I appreciate it and people at the Brooks Clubhouse knows what a wonderful job that you do. So kudos and keep it up.
