5th Annual Suncoast BBQ & Bluegrass Bash

The Suncoast BBQ Bash is an annual fundraiser on the Suncoast Foundation for Handicapped Children, Inc. (SFHC). In 1985, SFHC was founded to support local non-profits that provide services to the handicapped children of our community.

Today, the SFHC has over 74,000 square feet of buildings that are located on three Campuses; Sarasota, Venice, and North Port.  These facilities are leased to non-profit organizations at no charge.  The net proceeds from the Suncoast BBQ & Bluesgrass Bash will be used to support and maintain all of these facilities both now and in the future.

This ensures that the legacies of the instrumental supporters both present and past like Kevin Brown, John Cox, Kathy Hazard, Gary Jones, John Olliver, Orville Ray, Bill Sirios, Gene Whipp, and Robert Woods are preserved and that non-profit organizations can continue to serve the special needs children of our community.
