Share our fantastic 8th anniversary celebration 🎈✨️🧨🎉 news with someone less fortunate...
Get Back Up Again is beyond fortunate to have so many helping hands and generous hearts supporting our mission to help those less fortunate rise.
Our Super Sunday Lineups are just one testimonial to all we try to provide for our community's homeless population on every third Sunday of the month, weather permitting. ☀️
In planning our 8th GBUA April Anniversary, we are thrilled to be joined by our partners, VyStar volunteers, the Omega Psi Phi sorority, a local Masons chapter, and entertainment to assist in making our annual celebration a huge success!

GBUA believes in warm thoughts, hearts, bodies, and our loyal supporters and volunteers — YOU ARE AMAZING!
Our GBUA family of volunteers is here to offer hope, share love, put some spring in their step, and fuel positive energy for those less fortunate!
We believe all the homeless can embrace who they are, define their future, and get back up again.
And we are most thankful for the resources and volunteers who help us make that happen.
We take COVID precautions before, during, and after ALL Super Lineup events: We require masks, sanitizers, wipes, and a limited number of persons to five at a time to protect our participants and volunteers.
During Super Sunday Lineups, local JAX homeless select the lines that provide specific, immediate needs — prayers, particular needs, wearables, footwear, health, and hygiene.
We genuinely try to help those in need to "Get Back Up Again" during these events: Every Super Sunday Line Up is unique!
