Today, late, great Dolphins executive Jason Jenkins would've turned 52. He believed in bringing people together through community service. The Dolphins, since launching a monthlong initiative honoring him every October since 2023, have united more than 2,300 volunteers to positively impact upward of 181,000 people. In 2026 alone, more than 650 volunteers took part in 12 community service projects, reaching nearly 65,000 people across South Florida and communities affected by natural disasters, including the earthquakes in Venezuela and Colombia. “Jason’s legacy is in every person who dedicated their time to a service project this month,” said Elizabeth Jenkins, widow of Jason Jenkins and executive board chair of Dolphins Cancer Challenge. “It has been incredible to see the outpouring of support from the Dolphins family and members of our community this past month in his honor. Jason's dream was truly about giving back to the South Florida community, and I love that we have done this every year since his passing.”
