McClary Magic
Two Avondale residents, Glen and Marisol McClary, have turned their Pine Street home into what they dubbed the “Encanto Magical Casita of Avondale,” complete with bright colors, lighted flowers, and scenes from the Disney animated movie, “Encanto,” which, according to the movie’s website, features the Madrigal family, “who live hidden in the mountains of Columbia, in a magical house, in a vibrant town, in a wondrous, charmed place called an Encanto.”
The spectacle serves as a venue for the homeowners to raise money for Beyond 90.
Beyond 90 is a Jacksonville nonprofit that bridges the gap to self-sufficiency by providing support services, including mental health, skills-building classes and housing to refugees as they work to build new lives in Northeast Florida. It is based on the premise that newly arriving refugees are only given assistance for the first 90 days but may still need help to be fully self-sufficient.
The display features a QR code for passersby to donate to the organization.
