What is a community foundation anyway? We get this question a lot. So let's break this down! Community foundations: ✔ are tax-exempt public charities recognized by the IRS. ✔ support a specific geographic region. ✔ manage charitable funds established by individuals, families and organizations. ✔ work to solve complex issues within its defined geographic region. Central Florida Foundation is our region's community foundation. We serve 7 counties: Orange, Osceola, Seminole, Lake, Volusia, Brevard, and Polk. Here in Central Florida, we operate through the lens of Thrive, our localized version of the Sustainable Development Goals. Think of this as a blueprint for making our region an even better place to call home. In addition to being a trusted steward of hundreds of philanthropic legacies, we also focus on issues that matter to Central Floridians: ✔ attainable housing ✔ creating a safe, resilient and inclusive community ✔ giving circles that empower women and children ✔ social enterprise that offers business solutions to complex social issues ✔ homelessness ✔ and several more pressing issues. Our work in these areas is guided by our team of philanthropic and community experts who believe in the power of collaborating, and powered by the generous philanthropy of our Fundholders and donors. Have more questions on community foundations or what we do? Comment below, send us a DM, or visit our website: cffound.org.

“Why can’t Tun Tavern once again stand in Philadelphia?” We wanted to provide everyone an update on the status of the rebuilding of The Tun TODAY, the idea of rebuilding The Tun originated in 2015. While there had been earlier attempts to rebuild the tavern, none were like this. Past attempts did not include the other organizations that can trace their origins to The Tun. Once the decision was made to “rebuild”, the other organizations were contacted, & a “coalition” was formed with all 6 organizations with a heritage at Tun Tavern: Pennsylvania Freemasons, Society of Saint George, Saint Andrews Society, Sons of Saint Patrick, USMC & USN. In 2021, the search for a location commenced, to give The Tun’s eventual patrons the experience of colonial Philadelphia. The land chosen is currently a parking lot, about 250 yards from the original location. From the start organizers insisted that the re-established Tun should be a functioning tavern, but operate as a non-profit with all operating profits donated to veteran charities, masonic charities, & scholarships. “Tun Tavern Legacy Foundation”, was formally created in February 2021, & registered as a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation with the stated mission “To rebuild & re-establish The Tun™ as it was, a functioning mariner’s tavern reminiscent of colonial Philadelphia, serving period-influenced refreshments, food, entertainment & offering an educational experience through exhibits, historical documents, & special events.” The Foundation, headquartered in Philadelphia, with representation on its Board of Directors from each of the six “coalition” organizations, is tasked with the rebuilding of The Tun, oversee its management, & the eventual distribution of profits to veteran, masonic, and educational charities. Since the creation of the Foundation, progress has been considerable. In October 2023, an Agreement of Sale was signed to purchase the required land. In November 2023, an architect, engineer, and construction manager were formally under contract. In December of 2023 the Board of Directors were ratified and adopted the Foundation’s formal bylaws. While the bulk of the historical research has been accomplished, ongoing research continues for clarification purposes. Initial environmental testing has also been completed & a zoning application is currently being readied for submission. While much has been accomplished to ensure the completion of this goal, there is much remaining. In February 2024, we are set to close the land deal; June 2024 the design, zoning and permitting is on schedule to be completed. The goal is to have the groundbreaking and construction begin in November 2024 with the grand opening, 10 November 2025. We are now in full fund-raising mode. There are multiple ways you can help see this dream become reality. Begin by visiting the website www.TheTun.org; you can help spread the word on this effort; & you can follow us on social media to be kept updated on the dream.
