Impact through Generosity Report | June 2023
Report to the Community
We are pleased to offer this report of our shared accomplishments since Hurricane Ian made landfall on September 28, 2022. Because of your trust, confidence and support, CFI:
Distributed over $1 million in grants and relief assistance to Sanibel and Captiva organizations.
Affirmed the importance of the Islands’ nonprofit sector:
providing much needed support by way of employee assistance grants and facilitating important conversations to collaborate and share resources, including incubating powerful ideas such as the POINT volunteer platform.
Matched residents to the needs of the community and helped identify new volunteers:
The Leadership Sanibel-Captiva Class of 2022 hosted the Get Inspired! Nonprofit Expo on March 30 so Sanibel and Captiva residents could connect to our island organizations.
And inspired new philanthropy with Laurie and Bill Harkey’s $2 million investment:
The Sanibel couple created a donor advised fund in spring 2023 while also naming CFI as a successor trustee, demonstrating their trust in our ability to serve the community well into the future.
