white space Meet Jessica

Jessica’s story is one of personal triumph. She’s gone through many hardships. But despite her mother being an addict, her father in prison and Jessica spending the majority of her childhood homeless, she found a way to avoid temptation and pave a new path to a secure future – thanks to Publix and support from her neighbors.

Carlos J. Fonseca
Store Manager, Publix Supermarket

“As a Publix associate, it is my pleasure to give back to the community I work for … I visited a school that United Way sponsors by providing teachers to help kids with disabilities. That was what drew me to United Way. I continue to observe the numerous locations and people that United Way is helping—that’s what brings me back every year.”
