The America’s Boating Club of Sanibel-Captiva recently donated $1,000 to Community Housing and Resources. The funds will be used to replace all of the tools, materials, cleaning supplies and more that CHR’s maintenance team lost in Hurricane Ian. The club explained that at its Change of Watch/Annual Meeting, it voted to dedicate 10% of its reserved finances toward relief efforts for its members and the community. A Relief Committee found that no members were in need, so it looked to the community and learned about CHR’s maintenance crew. It proposed expending $1,000 to help re-tool the team and the proposal was approved unanimously. In addition, club members at the April meeting donated an additional $865 toward the cause.
