Pensacola – Local nonprofits that are planning community fundraising and awareness events in the Gulf Coast market are encouraged to apply for an event sponsorship from Cox Communications. Cox is currently accepting applications for events occurring between January 1 and June 30, 2023. If your nonprofit is planning an event that will take place during these dates, and looking for support, apply for cash or in-kind sponsorships at Cox’s Charitable Giving Site. The deadline for applications is Wednesday, November 30. Organizations will be notified if their requests are approved in early December.
“It’s in our company’s DNA to work with local nonprofits to help provide services that improve the welfare of all our neighbors,” said David Deliman, market vice president for Cox Gulf Coast. “We look forward to finding new partnerships and ways we can help enhance the quality of life in Northwest Florida.”
In 2021, Cox gave over $1 million in cash and in-kind services to nonprofits in the Gulf Coast Market, which stretches from Escambia to Walton County. These sponsorships are specifically held for nonprofit fundraising events, not general donations, and the organization must be a registered 501(c)3.
