About Parenting Matters: Parenting Matters is a local parenting education and support nonprofit organization that advances the lives of children, together, with their parents. Our parenting education programs help parents and caregivers discover fun ways to foster their child’s learning and strengthen their parent/child bond. These programs include in-home parenting services, community-based groups, classes, and workshops. Each opportunity is customized to meet the individual needs of each family. All programs are offered at little or no cost. About the Gulf Coast Community Foundation: “The notion of a community caring for its own is written in Gulf Coast Community Foundation’s organizational DNA. Our foundation was created in 1995 with proceeds from the sale of The Venice Hospital, a community hospital that had been founded by local citizens more than four decades earlier. Over 850 generous philanthropists call Gulf Coast home. Together with our donors, we have surpassed granting over $550 million in the areas of health and human services, civic and economic development, education, arts and culture, and the environment.”
