The Dauphin Island Town Council has approved funding for 50% of the approximately $600,000 needed in matching funds for a protective berm. The other 50% of the funds will need to be collected from property owners, or from other sources.
To date combined contributions and pledges from property owners total over $180,000.
Anyone interested in making a contribution can download the pledge form directly from the DIPOA web site or directly from the Dauphin Island Times here.
You can also make a tax-deductible contribution to the Dauphin Island Berm fund by making a contribution to the Dauphin Island Foundation. Send your tax deductible pledges to:
