The organization's mission is to cultivate joy, build community connection, and enhance the well-being of individuals and families through volunteering, fundraising, and tailored projects.

What it reported doing in 2025
Fresh Squeezed Joy hosted the second annual "Tee Up For Trev" golf tournament on October 12, 2025, at Strawberry Farms Golf Club to raise awareness and support for Vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (VEDS) research. Held in honor of Trevor Jones, the event brought together approximately 100 golfers, 130 dinner guests, sponsors, donors, and volunteers for a day focused on community connection, fundraising, and awareness surrounding this rare genetic condition. The event raised more than $56,000 through sponsorships, donations, registrations, and related fundraising activities. Net proceeds from the event are designated to support VEDS research initiatives. The organization coordinated all aspects of the event, including planning, volunteer management, sponsorship outreach, donor engagement, and community storytelling efforts aligned with its charitable mission. In addition to fundraising, the event served as a community-building initiative designed to cultivate joy, connection, and hope for individuals and families impacted by VEDS. Fresh Squeezed Joy also supported additional volunteer-driven and mission-focused activities throughout the year that encouraged meaningful engagement and promoted emotional well-being through purpose-driven gatherings and outreach efforts.
