Grand Harbor is a caring and giving Community
and we are grateful for the support of our members, volunteers and
corporate sponsors. In the 2013-2014 season, Grand Harbor Community Outreach Program provided over $300,000 to non-profit organizations in Indian River County including the November Evening of Giving which generated $25,000 in cash & gifts.
Our Philanthropy Committee allocated over $275,000 to 27 deserving agencies this past season. These funds were generated from multiple sources including our Annual Fund appeal, our corporate sponsors and our special events. Since 2001 we have provided over $2.35 million to area non-profit agencies.

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 24 volunteers divided into four teams under a team leader and last season reviewed over 35 requests for funding. The four major agency categories are:
LIFE’S ESSENTIALS
HEALTH & FAMILY
STABILITY SERVICE
EDUCATION, CHILD
& SENIOR CARE
ENRICHMENT
Supporting the basic needs of individuals.
The promotion or development of family values and the family structure.
The promotion of healthy individuals and the support of those in need of special assistance
(elderly, mentally or physically challenged).
Programs that improve social, emotional and academic skills of youth.
Supporting the basic needs

The promotion or development of family values and the family structure.

HOW WE GENERATE FUNDING
SOURCES:
Annual Fund
The Annual Fund Drive is the major source of funds for the Outreach effort each season. In October we mail a solicitation letter to the members of Grand Harbor Club. Last season we raised a record $190,000 from 293 members & $14,000 in memorium for a total of $204,000.
Events
We will hold 4 fund raising events this season, The Evening of Giving, Bridge and Majhong Luncheon, Gala Dinner & Auction 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 covered 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.
