Local nonprofit organization Goodwill Manasota is thrilled to have access to crucial program funding through a new partnership with the Louis & Gloria Flanzer Philanthropic Trust. Together with a substantial contribution from William Isaac, chairman of the Sarasota Private Trust Company, and his wife, Christine, the Louis & Gloria Flanzer Philanthropic Trust is matching Goodwill’s “Change Round-Up” program for the fourth quarter of the year, including the important holiday shopping season. The Louis & Gloria Flanzer Philanthropic Trust is excited about this new partnership with Goodwill, a premier agency that helps people throughout the Sarasota and Manatee region,” said trustee Eric Kaplan. “Our matching program has disbursed more than $1 million in matched contributions since it started, providing crucial funds to dozens of Suncoast agencies.”
