Business & Talent Expo 2018 THU March 22-SUN March 25 Jacksonville, FL DUVAL Spring Fest + RYB! 2018, (Duval Spring Music & Community Festival) a Jacksonville-based, all-indie music concert series, has been held every spring since the founder (Jacksonville-based Hip Hop/Caribbean artist and music/TV producer Dez Nado) was a student at the University of North Florida circa 2006, the year that the first Spring Fest was held at "Wackadoo's" on the campus of the university. The event was designed to be a platform for local talent, local businesses, and local musicians to showcase themselves and their brands, with the over-arching goal being to raise the level of awareness for local music/business while offering locals more opportunities to connect with potential supporters and upping the quality of the local entertainment scene at the independent level. Each year the festival dedicates at least one event during the weekend to directly benefiting the community. ("Feed Those In Need", where volunteers are called usually on the last afternoon of the weekend to distribute food and clothing to the less fortunate, and "Each One, Teach One", where the community is called to donate funds for high school graduate scholarships, academic & health/fitness programs, and for school supplies for underserved K-12 students, both to be administered via The VIP and Chasity Taylor Foundations) Since then, the event's brand has developed into an impactful yearly rite of passage for many up-and-comers in the local music scene, having received acclaim from Starz TV Producer & Eminem protégé 50 Cent's G-Unit Records, Def Jam Records executive A. Lindsey, local news & entertainment media including Folio Weekly, Buzz Magazine, Jacksonville Magazine, The Chat, River City Live, and more. This year, Spring Fest is partnering with a similarly structured local event, called "Rep Yo Brand! Business and Talent Expo" along with Top Golf, First Coast Lupus Fight, and Jax Young Urban Professionals to bring another aspect to Spring Fest weekend; community health awareness, by calling on the community to support non-profit organizations like First Coast Lupus Fight for the betterment of the local community's health as a whole (Tickets for Rep Yo Brand! Expo can be purchased separately HERE https://www.eventbrite.com/e/journey-2-a-cure-benefit-rep-yo-brand-business-talent-expo-2018-tickets-36905131241#tickets ). The goal this year is to not only raise awareness and support for the less fortunate, underserved K-12 students and graduates, along with Jax's local entertainers and entrepreneurs, but also to raise awareness and support for those within and outside of the entertainment industry battling incurable illnesses, including lupus, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, Graves' Disease, HIV/AIDS, and more. Their goal is to not just raise funds to donate to non-profits like First Coast Lupus Fight ($5,000 goal) and The Chasity Taylor Foundation ($5,000 goal), but to also boldly be the voice for those suffering, many of whom often feel voiceless in today's society. The lineup of events starts on Thursday, March 22 with a fundraising kick-off lunch from 11am-5pm at Blaze Pizza where locals can bring a Spring Fest coupon print-out/digital flyer and donate 20% to the causes of the festival, and later there will be a private wine tasting from 6-8pm for raffle winners from the community and event VIPs at Total Wine & More. The official kick-off party will be at LIVE BAR on Bay street Friday night (March 23), followed by a Community Benefit Luncheon at Maa Banquet Hall on Saturday March 24, 12-3pm, for victims of the aforementioned illnesses along with at-risk students who will have a chance to receive donated prom dress/tuxedo rentals on behalf of VIP/The Chasity Taylor Foundation. That night, there will be a local/independent music showcase for local bands and musicians at Morocco Shrine Auditorium, and on Sunday, March 25, they wrap up the weekend with Feed Those in Need 2-4pm at Hemming Park, and finally Journey 2 A Cure Benefit - Rep Yo Brand!

The VIPF exists and works in collaboration with the VIPN to be a platform for local talent/art, local businesses, and local musicians to showcase themselves and their brands, with the over-arching goal being to raise the level of awareness for local music/business while offering locals more opportunities to connect with potential supporters and upping the quality of the local entertainment scene in Jacksonville at the independent level, since many big businesses and successful venues refuse to support local talent/art, business, and media. In all of our initiatives, we share our resources and platforms with and additionally channel our efforts to other local not-for-profit organizations rooted in the community, such as The Chasity Taylor Foundation, which exists to support underserved local K-12 students by donating school supplies and offering scholarship money for new college students, and also connecting them with academic and health/fitness programs designed to improve the likelihood of their long-term success, and organizations like First Coast Lupus Fight that exists for the purpose of raising community health awareness, promoting disease prevention, and advocating general health/fitness of all
