ABOUT
BEYOND THE BOARDWALK
The Neptune Festival goes beyond the boardwalk to give back to the City that we love. In addition to producing events, the Neptune Festival provides exposure and fundraising opportunities for nonprofit, civic, and charitable organizations.
Each year, nonprofit organizations collectively earn over $100,000 from their involvement with the Festival. Not only are we sharing funds, but organizations given space on the boardwalk have much to gain - animals adopted, donations received, and awareness raised!
In 2016, we were proud to partner with the following organizations:
EQUI-KIDS providing equine assisted activities for individuals who have mental, physical, emotional, social, or learning disabling conditions
Governor's School for the Arts a center for innovation that develops excellence, nurtures creativity, inspires artistic vision, and builds communities with a passion for the arts
An Achievable Dream operating 3 schools dedicated to the belief that all children can learn and succeed, and that education can break the cycle of poverty
Toby's Dream Foundation ensures that children living with life-threatening illnesses in Greater Hampton Roads and the Eastern Shore of Virginia have the opportunity and resources to imagine and experience their most fantastic Dream
As well as:
Town Center Kiwanis Club • Virginia Beach Police Foundation • Virginia Beach Rotary
Virginia Beach Jaycees • Virginia Musical Theatre • and more!
