I like things that feel authentic, things that have a function." • Fast fact: Brown runs her business with manager Ashleigh Jones. J ill Brown takes a personal approach in her home décor-and-furniture business. That's also the way she handles charitable efforts to help high school and academy students. Her business, simply named Brown, is a winner for The Next Big Give, a national search for small businesses that give back to their communities. The latest winners were announced Feb. 14 by Dallas Market Center, a wholesale marketplace that chose applicants that make a difference through volunteering, raising funds or donating goods. "I'm so thrilled," said Brown, who hosted parties at her business last year to raise funds and awareness for the FFA program at Lamar High School, 3325 Westheimer, and for Yellowstone Academy, 3000 Trulley St. "I'm mostly thrilled because this will help increase the visibility of the Yellowstone Academy and Lamar High School's FFA, and that's what we want to do." Brown is in the Upper Kirby District at 2940 Ferndale St. It and winner Tea & Magnolias of Tulsa, Okla. were selected from more than 50 retailers. The owners of both businesses will receive a free trip March 24-27 to the Dallas Market Center, including free airfare and a three-night hotel stay. While there, the winners will be honored during The Inspired Event, a cocktail party and silent auction benefiting a charitable cause. The nominees for this program either nominated themselves or were nominated by a manufacturer, sales representative, buyer or customer. Finalists were selected by a panel of representatives from the retail industry and Dallas Market Center. Longtime friend Tonie Nolan, who lives in Washington, D.C., said she couldn't be happier for Brown, who Nolan describes as one of the most genuine people she knows. "I think the thing that's most Jill-like is her lack of pretense," Nolan said. "Good or bad, what you see is what you get." And the business reflects Brown's personality, Nolan added. "There's no disconnect between Jill's real life and her business life, where the fun ends and the business begins. The business is really important to her. She takes a real personal pride in it." Brown's role as entrepreneur follows decades of retail buying and management. "I've been buying and selling products since I was a kid," said Brown, who grew up in a small Ohio farming community. Her favorite childhood character, Pippi Longstocking, referred to herself as a " Thing-Finder." Brown holds to the same tradition. "It's the thrill of the hunt," she said. In 1997, she and husband Foster moved to Belgium for his work. There, Brown found a wealth of antiques and started buying. In 2001, the couple returned to Houston, and Brown launched her business. The store, which moved to its current location in 2006, is packed with items for the home. In 2003, Foster died suddenly while in Belgium. Brown believes he had a heart attack. Her sons Sam and John, now in their 20s, often helped with the business. Sam continues to work in the warehouse on weekends. Brown has been interested in supporting the community.

In February of 2012, I will embark on a five month hike from Springer Mountain, Georgia, to Mount Katahdin, Maine along the entirety of the Appalachian Trail to benefit Yellowstone Academy. Yellowstone was created in July 2001, for the purpose of establishing a Christian private school exclusively serving low-income children in Houston's inner city. Yellowstone was founded on the belief that, through quality education, children living in poverty can transcend their circumstances and grow up to become responsible, productive adults. The school exclusively serves children from very low-income families with a program that provides and nurtures the educational, spiritual, social, and practical resources that every person needs to succeed in life.
