FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
April 25, 2023

Pensacola – Local nonprofits that are planning 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 July 1 and December 31, 2023. If your nonprofit is planning an event that will take place during these dates, and looking for support, apply for cash and/or in-kind sponsorships at Cox’s Charitable Giving Site. The deadline for applications is Friday, June 2, 2023. Organizations will be notified if their requests are approved in mid-June.

In 2022, Cox gave over $1.6 million in cash and in-kind services to nonprofits in the Gulf Coast Market, which includes portions of Escambia, Santa Rosa, Okaloosa and Walton counties.
