Hammock Dunes Cares
from Championship Golf to Charitable Giving
Being a good citizen and neighbor to the Palm Coast and Flagler County communities is a core value brought to life through the charitable efforts of Hammock Dunes Cares, a tax exempt 501(c)(3) and the philanthropic arm of the Club.
Hammock Dunes Cares hosts a number of events to raise funds in support of Hunger Relief, Veterans’ Wellness, Habitat for Humanity, the Flagler Free Clinic and Hammock Dunes Club employees through disaster relief and scholarship support. With opportunities all year to support their initiatives, there’s no shortage of ways that all members can give back. In 2022, through the generous support of the Club’s members, more than $150,000 was distributed to other local not-for-profit corporations for the benefit of Flagler County.
Feeding the Community
Hammock Dunes Cares supports every food pantry in Flagler county. Two freezers were purchased for a food distribution center serving those with a basic need, hunger relief. Funds were recently donated to the Hammock Community Church and the Grace Food Pantry.
Serving those who have Served
Hammock Dunes Cares has provided support for Veterans for many years, keeping the funds within Flagler County. Traditionally, donations are generated from the annual Veterans Day Golf Tournament. Recent recipients include Disabled Veterans Association and Remembering Vets.
Building the Community
Over time, due to Hammock Dunes Cares’ partnership with Habitat for Humanity, 19 homes have been built without any cost to the Club. Habitat receive grant money annually from the State of Florida dedicated to affordable housing in Flagler County.
Healthcare Initiatives
The Flagler Free Clinic cares for the most vulnerable citizens by providing exceptional medical care to uninsured residents of Palm Coast. Our 2022 donation to them of $75,000 enabled them to expand their services and purchase medical devices, particularly dental equipment. Donations have totaled $90,000 to date.
The Stuart Meyer Hospice Center, built and supported by Hammock Dunes Club Members, received a 2022 donation of $10,000.
The Rally
The Club hosts its signature fundraising event, The RALLY, the first quarter of every year and features a slew of activities the whole family can enjoy. Events include golf, pickleball, bingo, bocce, croquet, mahjongg, a cocktail party with auction, LIVE concert and more! Hammock Dunes Cares, as the 2023 sponsor of The RALLY raised in excess of $120,000 benefiting the Flagler Sheriff’s Police Athletic League and other Flagler Charities.
Helping the Heart of the Club
Without the warm hospitality and care of our staff, Hammock Dunes Club would be nothing more than a club. Through initiatives such as the Employee Relief Fund, Holiday Fund, and an annual collection of Christmas gifts for their children, Hammock Dunes Cares is able to show appreciation and gratitude for our staff during times of need. Since the Fund’s inception in 2020, we have disbursed over $45,000 to aid more than 40 employees.
Another main focus of Hammock Dunes Cares is Employee Scholarship assistance that allows employees and their families to continue their education pre-paid at Daytona State College.
