The Charitable Foundation of the Islands (CFI) is proud to announce it has received a $5,000 grant from the Sanibel-Captiva Rotary Club. This funding will support CFI’s continued subscription to Instrumentl, a premier grant search and management platform provided to 15 nonprofit organizations serving the Sanibel and Captiva Islands.
Since 2023, Instrumentl has helped local nonprofits generate more than $472,000 in active grant funding. Recognized as the gold standard in philanthropy circles, this platform has catalyzed nearly half a million dollars in funding for critical community services — a powerful example of how strategic investments can multiply impact. CFI is honored to serve as the connector and catalyst behind this success, helping nonprofits secure the resources necessary to serve the islands effectively.
“This is exactly why CFI invested in building grant capacity on the Islands after Hurricane Ian,” said Dolly Farrell, Executive Director of the Charitable Foundation of the Islands. “CFI offers island nonprofits free grant writing and research consulting services to increase their ability to secure vital funding.”
