The Justin J. Davis Heart Foundation (JJD Heart) was founded by Justin and his mother (Karen Brown-Davis) in 2017. Justin was diagnosed with a Left Ventricle Noncompaction Cardiomyopathy, a congenital heart defect (CHD), at age 24. Justin continued to support and volunteer for over 7 years despite his illness. He was blessed to receive a new heart on April 29, 2024, and continues to be a guiding voice during his recovery.
