PHILANTHROPY
The Philanthropy Committee has the responsibility to conduct a thorough review process and qualify agency applications and their programs. It recommends to the Outreach Board for its approval a list of agencies to receive grant awards. These humanitarian grants support specific capital projects/programs as well as operating funds to a non-profit organization.
The Philanthropy Committee consists of about 37 volunteers divided into four teams under a team leader and last season reviewed over 32 requests for funding. The five major agency categories are:
BASIC NEEDS
HEALTH & FAMILY
STABILITY
EDUCATION
JOB TRAINING
YOUTH MENTORING
Supporting the basic needs of individuals.
The promotion or development of family values and the family structure.
The support of those in need of special assistance

HOW WE GENERATE FUNDING
Annual Fund
The Annual Fund Campaign is the major source of funds for the Outreach effort each season. Every October we mail a solicitation letter to the residents of Grand Harbor. Last season 2016 - 2017 we raised a record $277,000.
Events
We hold four fundraising events each season: The Evening of Giving, Gala Dinner & Live Auction, Bridge and Majhong Luncheon, and our Golf Classic. For details please see below.
Corporate Sponsors
Each season we have a number of generous sponsors from various local businesses. These funds cover all of our administrative and event expenses, so that 100% of our members’ contributions go directly to area non-profit programs. Please see page on "SPONSORS" for details.

THANK YOU
The Grand Harbor Community Outreach Program is staffed entirely by volunteers, some of whom are on the GHCOP Board for one or two years. Many work year after year on committees such as Philanthropy. Some work on a single event and some on several during one season. More than 100 Grand Harbor residents and members contribute their time and talents to making a successful Outreach Program.
The following highlights our committee members, but we would also like to thank the dozens of volunteers who work behind the scenes supporting our special events and our various other activities throughout the year. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact one of our board members.
Many of the community agencies that Grand Harbor Community Outreach partners with and financially supports have a continuing need for volunteers. To aid them in their efforts, we have compiled a list of currrent volunteer opportunities. PLEASE CLICK ON "VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES" above. You may also obtain a copy of the list at the Grand Harbor clubhouse lobby. If you would like to volunteer, please contact the agencies directly.
