Story and Mission
Community Impact Program (C.I.P.)
In addition to executing our organization’s mission and
vision, The Grounds and Greater Gulf State Fair have
been able to impact our community by partnering with
other non-profits through the means of direct monetary
giving, complimentary or discounted facility usage, and
fundraising assistance. Our organization has partnered
with various nonprofits and businesses to give and
fundraise over $1,000,000 in the last six years.
In 2020, to ensure the organization’s giving is efficient,
effective, and most impactful while furthering our
mission and vision, The Grounds and Greater Gulf State
Fair will be launching the Community Impact Program
(C.I.P.). Beginning January 2020, nonprofits seeking
support for program funding, donations, and event
sponsorship, as well as facility usage discounts at The
Grounds, can complete an application found on our
websites to qualify for our Organization’s funding or
complimentary facility usage. In order for the application
to be approved, the nonprofit’s program and/or purpose
must align with one or more of our impact areas of
Education, Quality of Life Enhancement, and Community
Involvement.
