Dune Acres Foundation
Since 1986 the Dune Acres Civic Improvement Foundation has helped residents improve the quality of life in the Town of Dune Acres by providing a tax advantaged means of helping the Town build, buy, maintain, and repair amenities for the benefit of all our residents and guests.
Over the decades our friends and neighbors have donated to the Foundation to provide funding for numerous projects, from seawalls to beach stairs, clubhouse improvements, decks and landscaping.
Please help support the Dune Acres Foundation
The Foundation is not an entity with deep pockets. It is a conduit through which those that love our community can make tax-deductible gifts allowing Dune Acres to continue as the haven it has been for our families and friends.
Please make a generous gift to enhance the ongoing community life of our town.
Thank you for your support of this remarkable place we call home.
Because the Foundation is a 501(c)3 charitable organization, your contributions can provide tax benefits while assisting the Town with out-of-budget projects.
