St. Johns CARES, Inc. (formerly JCP CARES) is a nonprofit organization committed to helping local charities in St. Johns County. We provide assistance to local charities and those in need through donations and time. We divide our charity efforts into five different categories; Animals & Environment, Senior & Veterans, Children & Education, Medical and Homeless & Abused. We focus on these categories throughout the year.
Helping Hands of Nocatee has joined St. Johns CARES as St. Johns CARES Kids to work alongside one another supporting the charities in St. Johns County with more family and kid friendly activities.

Halo Keepers Yarn Drive : March 1 - 31
Thank you to Vystar, UPS Store, St. Augustine Record and Primrose School on Crosswater Parkway for serving as drop off locations for this year's yarn drive. We are proud to report that we collected almost 900 skeins of yarn and several gift cards, which will all be used to create wigs for children undergoing cancer treatment. Halo Keepers said this was their biggest yarn drive ever!
If you participated in this drive, THANK YOU!
