Suncoast Charities for Children

Suncoast Charities for Children is a 501 (c)(3) that provides funding to six area non-profit agencies providing programs and services to over 8,000 children, teens, and adults with special needs. Funding support is made possible thanks to special events held throughout the year such as the Thunder By The Bay Music & Motorcycle Festival, Suncoast Summer Fest, Holiday Boat Parade of Lights and New Year's Eve and July 4th Bayfront Firework Displays.  Benefitting agencies include Children First, Sarasota Special Olympics, The Florida Center for Early Childhood, The Haven, Loveland Center, and Venice Challenger Baseball. Financial support is also provided to the Suncoast Foundation for necessary maintenance and capital needs at these same agencies.
