Episode 26: Serving Love - The Heart Behind the Jax Project

Collaborative Solutions Podcast

This episode of Collaborative Solutions celebrates Trina Tinsley, co-founder of the Jax Project, a grassroots effort born from her 8-year-old son Jax heartfelt question: “Why can’t we feed them dinner?” What began as a simple act of kindness has grown into a lifeline of love and care for those experiencing homelessness. Every Sunday, Trina and her team serve hot meals, but their mission goes far beyond food. With the motto “We serve love with a side of food,” they build connections, offer hope, and remind people they matter. Now, the Jax Project is expanding to support newly housed individuals, ensuring they feel cared for as they adjust to stability. Trina’s compassion and dedication remind us of the power of love in action. Her story is a beautiful example of how one small question can spark a movement that transforms lives and strengthens community.
