Each year the Club conducts a survey during September Phlockings to determine which local 501(c)(3) charity organizations to support the following year.  Members who cannot attend a September Phlocking are asked to complete and email the below survey to Marsha Herring at mherr424@comcast.net no later than Sep 29.  Using survey feedback, the committee develops a “Giving Plan” recommendation which is presented to the Executive Committee. The Giving Plan includes direct cash donations, member fundraising events and food and clothing drives!

2024

The Villages Parrot Head Club donated $1,308,280 cash, in kind, and time to local charities in 2024.  The donations come from volunteer hours worked; blood drives; donated food, school supplies, toys, and household goods; and lots of cash which comes from our sale of 50/50 tickets, annual Poker Run and Cody's fundraisers.
