The Conservancy & Community Trust of South Gulf Cove, Inc.
is a 501(c)(3) Tax exempt non-profit organization established to elicit large sums of money to
implement projects outlined in the
Charlotte County Community Plan for South
Gulf Cove. Charlotte County has many county-wide budget priorities that
will take precedence over South Gulf Cove needs. Donations from South Gulf
Cove residents and property owners are welcome. However, the thrust of the
Conservancy's capital campaign will be to elicit money from other non-profits,
foundations, government agencies and corporations. All contributions will
be tax deductible for the donor. All donations will be used to implement
projects within South Gulf Cove.

The Conservancy and Community Trust of South Gulf Cove Inc. (CCT)
will be conducting their annual public meeting on Saturday, January
30th at the newly opened South Gulf Cove Park, next to the boat ramp

pavilion at 2:00 pm. It will provide you an opportunity to visit
the new park and join us for an informative meeting. The meeting

The
Conservancy and Community Trust was established in 2003 to support
the South Gulf Cove community by providing beautification,
conservation, recreation, and other projects in accordance with the
SGC Community Plan. The CCT works closely with the SGC Advisory
Committee, and the Streets & Drainage MSBU, to provide direction and
facilitate funding for current and proposed community improvement
projects. Updates will be provided at the meeting on activities
conducted by Learning Garden and Cove Connector volunteers.
Put
it on your calendar. Plan to join us at the park to hear what’s
happening and what’s planned for South Gulf Cove.
