Dear DBMS Community,
What an incredible second Giving Day! Thanks to your generosity and enthusiasm, together we exceeded our $93,500 goal by 150% and raised more than $140,000 to support Duxbury Bay Maritime School’s mission of connecting people of all ages, abilities and means to Duxbury Bay.
Every donation, every share, every conversation, and every visit to our Giving Day Kickoff Party helped make this achievement possible. Because of you, all seven Giving Day incentive challenges were successfully completed, unlocking thousands of additional dollars to support scholarships, outreach, adaptive programs, environmental stewardship, individual programs and all we do here at DBMS.
A heartfelt thank you to our Giving Day Challenge Sponsors: The Salah Foundation, Barry and Nancy Gonder, Edie and Ted Devnew, Ann and Kevin Mullins, Skip and Marsan Patton, Kathy and John Turner, Amy and Brian Sack, Bill and Sally Miller, The Burtner Bleak Family and three anonymous donors.
Together, these generous sponsors committed $41,000 to encourage participation, multiply the impact of every donation and maximize the success of Giving Day.
If you’re interested in sponsoring a Giving Day challenge next year and inspiring our community to give, we’d love to hear from you. Please reach out to our Development Team to learn more.
Congratulations to our Giving Day prize winners!

With sincere appreciation,
