‘Building Tomorrow’ is the capital improvement fundraising campaign of the Davis Islands Civic Association.
Several years ago, the civic association established the Davis Islands Capital Improvement Fund at the Community Foundation of Tampa Bay. The Fund is designated for public improvements on Davis Islands, consistent with the Davis Islands Community Plan. Donors to this 501(c)(3) fund can take the maximum allowed federal income tax deduction for charitable contributions. Money raised to date has been donated to the City of Tampa to help fund restoration of Roy Jenkins Pool. Going forward, fundraising efforts will be directed toward helping fund other projects identified in the DI Community Plan, such as:
– Completion of the linear park, comprised of a Seddon Channel waterfront walkway from TGH to South Davis Boulevard and a paved trail from South Davis Boulevard to Seaplane Basin Park beach.
– Construction of a community center along the Seddon Channel waterfront.
To find out more about the Davis Islands Capital Improvement Fund and how to contribute, contact the civic association”s Building Tomorrow Chair, Denise Cassedy, at dcassedy@verizon.net.
