Colleen Rodriguez, CEO of what is now called The LJD Jewish Family & Community Services, said part of the 'transformational' donation will create an endowment, which is a fund set up to provide long-term support for a particular organization or cause.

DuBow came from a family of pharmacists — his father, uncles and cousins — and he followed the same career path.

He and his wife were married almost 60 years, he said in the video, and not only had the same initials but the"same personality." He always consulted her on his philanthropic decisions. "We were best friends," he said."I respected her opinion. She had good answers, better insight … and feel for people than I did."

DuBow has long been active in the community, not only philanthropically but as a civic leader. He has served on the boards of directors for The Community Foundation for Northeast Florida, HabiJax, WJCT, United Way of Northeast Florida and Jacksonville Housing Authority. He was an early partner of the Jacksonville Jaguars and member of the Super Bowl XXXIX host committee.
