Beach Fund


The Beach Fund engages younger charitably minded Hampton Roads adults (or those who are young at heart) who want to connect with their community. In 2010 they recommended $19,250 in grants to four nonprofits working with children in the Lake Edward neighborhood of Virginia Beach.

Grant funding is provided by Beach Fund donations. Each member contributes a minimum of $400 annually to the Beach Fund permanent endowment. Annual membership lets you:

  • Help award grants to area nonprofits.
