The Giving Coast

Following a year-long challenge match, Gulf Coast Community Foundation, an anonymous donor, The Patterson Foundation, Charles and Margery Barancik Foundation, local foundations, and generous individuals throughout the community have helped The Bay raise $3 million in community co-investment to unlock a $2 million matching grant from Gulf Coast Community Foundation, totaling $5 million in funding. The $5 million in support triggered an additional $1 million match from The Patterson Foundation. This milestone demonstrates the power of the community partnerships that enable The Bay to be “One Park for All”. Funding will be used to support the design and development of an expanded Resilient Shoreline, as well as ongoing park operations, maintenance and FREE events and activities.
