Women in Philanthropy of Sarasota (WIP) has made a $100,000 capping grant to Gulf Coast Community Foundation (Gulf Coast), completing a campaign that raised more than $600,000 to combat food insecurity across the region this holiday season. The funds were raised through WIP’s annual soirée in response to heightened need during the holiday season, when many families face increased financial strain and food insecurity. Of the total grant, $75,000 was allocated to Gulf Coast’s Area of Greatest Need Fund, while $25,000 was directed to support All Faiths Food Bank. The $100,000 grant served as the capping gift in a broader November campaign to address food insecurity across the region. The effort included two separate matching challenges that together galvanized more than $600,000 in support of local hunger-relief efforts.
