Bonnell Cove Interest Survey
Please help Bonnell Cove Foundation reflect your interests. BCF makes grants to effective, innovative non-profits that make the sea safer and more sustainable for human activities.
The Bonnell Cove Foundation was formed in 1989 with funds from the sale of waterfront land bequeathed to the CCA by the generous past commodore, George P.P. Bonnell. The BCF directors are members of the CCA and want to know what kinds of grants our fellow CCA members would like to see BCF make in their preferred cruising regions in the areas of safety at sea and environment of the sea.
In addition, we would like to know how the BCF could communicate better with CCA members. The following survey is seven questions and should take only a few minutes. We value your opinions.
