This Memorial Day, we come together as a community to remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.

Their sacrifice is the foundation of the freedoms we share—and a reminder of the responsibility we carry to care for one another.

Across Collier County, we see that spirit every day through neighbors helping neighbors, and through the collective impact we can make when we come together.

In observance of Memorial Day, the Collier Community Foundation will be closed today. We will resume normal business hours tomorrow.

Today, we remember. And together, we honor.

Great project! Thank you for being stewards of our environment!

“On an island in the sun…” 🌴☀️
Okay, not quite — but close enough.

We’re celebrating the return of Summer Fridays! From Memorial Day through Labor Day, CCF will close at 12 PM every Friday, giving our team a little extra time to rest, recharge, and enjoy the summer after a season full of impact.

Thank you to our Board of Directors for supporting a culture that prioritizes people as much as purpose.

Because community helpers deserve a little extra sunshine. 🏖️😎

Housing affordability continues to be one of the most pressing challenges facing Collier County — and it will take innovation, partnership, and long-term commitment to create meaningful solutions.

At a recent Wake Up Naples discussion hosted by the Greater Naples Chamber, Lindsey Touchette, Vice President of Community Engagement at the Collier Community Foundation, joined local housing leaders to discuss creative approaches to workforce and affordable housing, including new tools designed to better connect residents with available housing opportunities.

CCF remains committed to working alongside nonprofits, local leaders, philanthropists, and community partners to help address housing challenges impacting essential workers, families, seniors, and veterans across our community.

Because when people can afford to live where they work, the entire community is stronger.

Hands-on training is helping prepare the next generation of aviation mechanics right here in Collier County. ✈️

The Collier Community Foundation was proud to support the aviation mechanics program at Lorenzo Walker Technical College through the donation of a helicopter, King Air aircraft, and turbine engines—giving students real-world experience with the equipment they’ll encounter in the workforce.

As highlighted in this recent article, expert instructors and industry-focused training are helping students launch high-demand careers while strengthening Southwest Florida’s aviation workforce.

This Mother’s Day, we honor the women who shape our community in ways both seen and unseen.

Mothers, grandmothers, and caregivers are often the quiet force behind stronger families, brighter futures, and more resilient communities. Their love, guidance, and sacrifice ripple far beyond a single home—they help build the Collier County we all share.

Today, and every day, we celebrate their lasting impact.

Happy Mother’s Day.
