Jekyll Island Foundation

MISSION
The Jekyll Island Foundation is devoted to raising funds for conservation, preservation, and education initiatives on and for Jekyll Island. A place as special as Jekyll Island relies on the vision of insightful people and organizations to help its character thrive. The Jekyll Island Foundation is proud to be dedicated to the welfare of this extraordinary island and would be equally proud to have you join us.

Jekyll Island is unique among state parks, famous for its natural beauty and historical significance. The Jekyll Island Authority (JIA) is responsible for overall management of the park but receives no public operating funds. Revenue is generated from leases, fees, and amenity operations.

Consequently, the JIA established the Jekyll Island Foundation to raise money for projects focused on caring for the island’s natural, cultural, and historical resources, ensuring stewardship of what makes Jekyll Island so magical.

HOW YOU CAN HELP
Join us for Whiskey, Wine & Wildlife on February 7–10, 2019. Whiskey, Wine & Wildlife artfully combines renowned beverage tastings and inspired cuisine from some of the South’s best chefs and local culinary superstars, with a chance to experience coastal wildlife up close.

Get involved in preserving Jekyll’s unique environment: participate in diamondback terrapin conservation, help us transform an old museum into a magnificently restored island amenity, honor a loved one with a memorial bench or live oak, or join as a foundation member.
