Annual ‘Donor Appreciation Dinner’ Celebrates Lee County Philanthropists

Cape Coral Community Foundation honors leaders who have influenced and made significant contributions to improving the lives of residents who live and work in Lee County

The Cape Coral Community Foundation invites the Southwest Florida community to an evening of networking, celebration and generosity at the 2020 ‘Lee County Honors’. The annual event unites recipients of generosity — our local nonprofit organizations — with those who give so generously — our business and community leaders. The celebration will be held at 6 p.m. Thursday, April 16th at the Palmetto-Pine Country Club on 1940 SW 9th Court in Cape Coral.

During the ‘Lee County Honors’ event, six humanitarians will be honored for giving back to the community and appreciated for their service to support nonprofit organizations. Honorees for this special recognition are Wayne Kirkwood, Gloria Raso Tate, Brian Rist, Lee Pitts, Chris Spiro, and Dylan Zsebe.

All honorees are known for their outstanding service in the community, have a record of exceptional generosity, show civic and charitable responsibility and demonstrate leadership that inspires others to a life of generosity. Grants will be awarded to local nonprofits, and the foundation will pay tribute to outgoing board members.

“Lee County Honors is a very special event that celebrates what’s at the heart of our foundation — generosity,” Cape Coral Community Foundation CEO Michael Chatman said. “It’s a feel-good evening recognizing and connecting outstanding donors, companies, and organizations to inspire generosity.”

Guests will enjoy music, dinner, and beverages. Tickets are $100 in advance. Space is limited, so attendees are encouraged to register online in advance at capecoralcf.org/events.

The Cape Coral Community Foundation, also known as the Center for Generosity, is a nonprofit organization created to help generous civic-minded donors who make a positive impact on their community and beyond.

Now in its 48th year, the organization continuously works to grow philanthropy and strengthen Southwest Florida by encouraging endowments, addressing public needs and providing community leadership. For more information, call 239-542-5594 or visit CapeCoralCF.org.
