Mayoral candidate and grocer Jeff Brown is the founder of Uplift Solutions, a nonprofit that provides jobs for formerly incarcerated people.
Between 2016 and 2020, when Brown chaired the nonprofit’s board, Uplift paid more than $1.5 million to Brown’s supermarkets to lease office space, buy food, or reimburse the corporation’s donations to other community groups.
