- The Brunswick High School and Glynn Academy bands each collected $10,000 for transportation and equipment upgrades.
- Second Harvest of South Georgia, a hunger-fighting organization serving a 12,000 square mile region of 26 counties, received $10,000 toward its mobile food pantry. The Sparrow’s Nest, a local food program operating under Brunswick community organization FaithWorks, accepted $10,000 toward a new freezer and meat to be donated to locals in need.
