Scholarships
A portion of your donation & proceeds will go to scholarships to Florida Keys community members who need assistance with education, business, and professional training. This past year, we provided scholarships through the Upper Keys Business and Professional Women Organization (BPW) and through Coral Shores High School, where Holly attended and graduated.

Domestic Abuse Shelter of the Florida Keys
The Holly Given Fund has donated $50,000 to the Domestic Abuse Shelter of the Florida Keys, thanks to proceeds from the Fish for Holly Sailfish Tournaments in 2019 & 2020. The shelter has an office in Key Largo, a house in Key West, and a house in Marathon is being built after Hurricane Irma destroyed the previous one. The new house in Marathon will have an Outreach Suite in Holly’s name. The Shelter is currently in need of additional funding to complete the Marathon shelter.
