Pinellas Community Foundation leaders and partners explored six nonprofit organizations across Pinellas County during the PCF Operating Grants Bus Tour.

The first Pinellas Community Foundation (PCF) Operating Grants Bus Tour was a transformative experience that brought together the PCF Team, Board of Governors, community reviewers, volunteers, and community leaders for an intimate exploration of six nonprofit organizations across Pinellas County. These organizations received substantial two-year operating grants totaling over $100,000, a testament to PCF’s commitment to catalyzing positive change in the community.

The diverse array of awardees showcased the breadth of PCF’s impact, including The Dysautonomia Project, Family Center on Deafness, Great Explorations, FEAST Food Pantry, Homeless Empowerment Program, and Artz 4 Life. The bus tour was a dynamic opportunity to engage with these organizations on a personal level, witnessing their missions come to life and experiencing the tangible impact of PCF’s support.

By meeting these nonprofits where they operate and observing their missions in action, participants gained a profound understanding of the real-world impact of PCF’s operating grants. The tour became a source of inspiration, fostering a deeper connection between stakeholders and the organizations driving positive change in the community. Thank you to our generous donors who have the forethought to fund today’s challenges.
