Live BRIGHT Foundation

Established in 2025

Live BRIGHT Foundation was created by Bradley and Jennifer Carlson, alongside their children Lucy and Jackson, to build a family legacy of joyful, values-driven giving. Our purpose is simple: help people and communities flourish—spiritually, emotionally, and practically.

BRIGHT reflects the heart of what we support: Bless, Remember, Invest, Give, Heal, and Thrive. “Remember” means honoring what matters most—faith, family, and the stories that shape us—while also supporting causes that preserve dignity and quality of life, including memory-care initiatives.

We prioritize grants that strengthen faith and community, expand education and opportunity for children and families, uplift the arts, and provide compassionate support to neighbors experiencing hardship. Through our fund at the Community Foundation of Tampa Bay, we’ll partner locally and beyond to help more people restore hope and live brighter for generations.

Make your tax-deductible donation safely and securely online via credit card using the donation form. A small credit card processing fee will be deducted from all gifts made by credit card. The minimum online donation is $25.
