A philanthropist and business owner, Jonathan Yob divides his time between leading the Yob Family Foundation (YFF) as president and heading JAY Management Corporation, as well as other business interests. Passionate about promoting child welfare efforts in and around Tampa, Jonathan “Jon” Yob has donated time to several organizations and provided them with support through YFF. One organization YFF works with is the Crisis Center of Tampa Bay, a group that helps all people who are dealing with a crisis find help and hope.
The Crisis Center of Tampa Bay received a $10,000 donation from AT&T in November 2020. This funding was given in support of the organization’s Gateway Contact Center, which includes a 2-1-1 line for people who are in crisis. At this number, callers are immediately given information and referrals to local services to help them. They can also receive 24/7 emotional support.
