Record-setting attendance at the Cape Coral Community Foundation’s Generous Cape Reception on March 30 honoring generous givers, volunteers and philanthropists.

After an assortment of drinks and appetizers at the Cape Coral Yacht Club, outgoing Board Chairman Brian Gomer detailed the year’s accomplishments – all still three months before the fiscal year’s end on June 30.

While Brian Gomer will remain on the CCCF Board for two more years following his service as Chairman, President Michael Chatman and Brian Gomer recognized four outgoing board members for their contributions, including John Bobb, Wealth Manager; MerriBeth Farnham, Public Relations and Marketing Consultant; Steve Riggs, Retired Business Executive; and Marty Warhol, Estate Planning Attorney. 

The evening concluded with a short tribute to Michel Doherty, recipient of the 2017 Elmer Tabor Generosity Award.  Brian Gomer also announced Dennis Gingerich, Founding Pastor at Cape Christian Fellowship Church as incoming Board Chairman.

Gingerich said he is very much looking forward to his new role. He plans to work in partnership with the staff to increase the amount of grants given to help nonprofit organizations, and helping churches and nonprofits start their own charitable foundations.
