Giving Back to Our Community in Melbourne, FL

 

Supporting Local Charities & Organizations Across Brevard County

At Great Southeast Flooring America in Melbourne, FL, we’re proud to give back to the community that supports us. From local children’s charities to education, the arts, and animal conservation, we’ve donated over $50,000 since 2019 to help make Brevard County a better place for everyone.

 

🏫 The Children’s Hunger Project: Buy a Floor, Feed a Child

When you purchase flooring from Great Southeast Flooring America, you're not just investing in your home; you're helping local kids in need. Through our partnership with The Children’s Hunger Project, every floor sold includes a donation in your name that feeds six children the following weekend.

 

Did you know? More than 50% of Brevard County students depend on free or reduced lunch programs, which don’t extend to weekends. This program provides nutritious, non-perishable food in backpacks sent home every Friday, ensuring children return to school on Monday ready to learn.

 

🎓 Local Scholarship Program: Investing in Education

We award $1,000 scholarships to deserving students at all 16 Brevard County public high schools every year. By 2025, we’ll have donated $112,000 to support higher education for local graduates. This initiative reflects our belief in the power of education to build a brighter future for Brevard County youth.

 

🐎 Space Coast Derby Day: A Winning Cause

As a primary sponsor of Space Coast Derby Day, we’ve contributed over $25,000 to this exciting local fundraiser since 2010. Held annually around the Kentucky Derby, the event features live music, charity horse races, silent auctions, and a celebration of community spirit.

 

Proceeds benefit incredible organizations, including:
 

✔️ Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Florida
✔️ Crosswinds Youth Services
✔️ Hidden Acres Thoroughbred Rescue

 

 

🐠 Brevard Zoo Aquarium Initiative: A Commitment to Conservation

We’re proud Founder-level sponsors of the new Brevard Zoo Aquarium initiative led by the East Coast Zoological Society. Our sponsorship supports education, research, marine life care, and sustainability for the Space Coast.

 

This aquarium will be a game-changing addition to Brevard County’s environmental and educational offerings. Follow us on Facebook or Instagram as this important project progresses!

 

🎨 Foosaner Art Museum: Celebrating Local Culture

In 2019, we donated over $2,500 to the Foosaner Art Museum in Melbourne, FL. The museum’s impressive collection includes regional art, photography, ceramics, and the world’s most extensive works by Ernst Oppler, a noted German Impressionist.

 

We believe the arts are essential to a vibrant and thriving community, and we’re honored to help preserve this cultural cornerstone.
