Launched in 2021, the Dennis M. and Lois A. Doyle Family Foundation created a meaningful initiative to support volunteers in Palm Beach County! In partnership with the Great Charity Challenge sponsored by Fidelity Investments® (GCC), the Volunteer Initiative empowers those who give their time and talents, while recognizing the vital role volunteers play.
The $20,000 donation and the matching funds from the GCC create a significant opportunity for ten organizations to receive $4,000 grants each every year. This kind of financial support can have a substantial impact, enabling these local non-profit organizations to further their missions and enhance their programs.
The objective of the initiative is to promote a sense of community and encourage even more people to get involved.
UPDATE 01/08/25: An anonymous donor joined in the effort at the last minute, adding 9 grants to be awarded through the initiative!
