Support Our Mission →The McDowell Foundation is committed to helping our community and other nonprofit charities. We take our convictions and turn them into action — every day, for every child.
Our vision is to show our support to those students and provide opportunities for them to learn and grow. We want to be the people who truly care about their futures.
We focus on making the maximum positive impact in children's lives — providing basic necessities for students while protecting the clean water, wildlife, and coastal traditions that shape their future.
The McDowell Foundation is expanding its mission from helping children today to protecting the local waters, wildlife, and outdoor traditions they will inherit tomorrow.
Based in Pasco County, our clean-water initiative focuses on responsible scalloping, seagrass protection, coastal cleanups, youth marine education, and community partnerships across Florida's west coast.
