JAX Christmas Light Spectacular (formerly Jack's Christmas Light Spectacular) was started in 2017 by Jack Wheeler at 11 years old. The light show has continued to grow over the years, now consisting of over 10,000 lights synchronized to 14 songs.

In 2021, the light show became a fundraiser for debra of America to raise money and awareness to help fight Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB). In the past three years, the show has reached thousands and raised over $58,000 and counting as of the end of 2025 for debra! If you enjoy the light show please consider showing your thanks by learning more about EB below and donating to debra by clicking donate above.

What is EB?

Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) is a group of rare genetic disorders that cause extremely fragile skin, which can blister and tear from even minor friction or trauma. Individuals living with EB face lifelong challenges, often including serious medical complications that require specialized care from multiple healthcare professionals. While there is currently no cure for EB, advances in treatment are helping alleviate some of its most debilitating symptoms.

Through advocacy, research support, and community outreach, debra of America has played an important role in advancing EB awareness and care. As of 2025, three groundbreaking therapies have received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), marking a historic shift in the landscape of care and offering renewed hope to individuals and families affected by this devastating disease.

debra of America’s work led to the groundbreaking U.S. FDA approval of the first-ever topical gene therapy drug and treatment for EB, and as of 2026, three therapies have been approved by the FDA, marking a historic shift in the landscape of care and a powerful step forward for individuals and families affected by this devastating disease.
