Description
The Beaches Community Fund is a collective giving initiative of the Community Foundation for Northeast Florida. It brings donors, nonprofits, and community members together to address vital issues and improve quality of life in communities from Mayport to Guana, east of the Intracoastal Waterway. Grants are available to large and small nonprofit organizations serving this area.
Funding priorities include residents’ basic needs, support for K–12 students, early learning opportunities for low-income children, and stronger nonprofit capacity. Supported work includes food assistance, housing, health care, student enrichment, access to high-quality early learning, and improvements that help nonprofits operate effectively and efficiently. Requests outside these program priorities receive lower priority.
