"The Outer Banks Community Foundation was organized in October 1982 as a public
charity to meet local needs in the Outer Banks area not ordinarily within the province of other charitable organizations, religious institutions, or government."
Be a Member and be a part of something bigger than us all!
The Outer Banks is a vast network of caring individuals and responsive nonprofits that make this a truly amazing place to live. When Hurricane Irene shook our community we were honored to be the donation center for disaster relief and recovery on the Outer Banks giving 100% of all disaster relief and recovery funds back to our community. We could not do this without members like you. We are proud to be a solid foundation for our community to rely on during the ups and downs of life. I encourage you to be a 2011 Member of the Outer Banks Community Foundation. Be a part of something bigger than us all!
Sincerely,
Skipper Hines, President of the Board of Directors
