Members of the Lakewood Ranch Community Fund celebrated another giving milestone Sept. 10, as they commemorated the addition of four new donor-advised funds to its Founders’ 50 monument on Lakewood Ranch Main Street.
The Massaro Kozak Art Fund, Douglas and Shari Phillips Family Fund, Cheers for Charity Women’s Giving Circle Fund and the Bordes Family Fund all had their names added to the monument, which has only 13 spots remaining. Each fund has contributed a minimum of $10,000 to receive its name plaque.
The Founders’ 50 is a campaign to encourage and recognize donors who establish permanent charitable funds dedicated to causes and interest that impact the community at large.
Following the ceremony, donors and other guests headed to the University of South Florida Culinary Innovation Lab, also on Lakewood Ranch Main Street, for wine and food as they shared about their passion for philanthropy.
