Organizations That Make Traverse City Great

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich., – The Cherry Capital is considered one of the best beach towns in America, and it's no wonder: with fun in the sun, year-round activities, and an exciting night life, it's practically the perfect town! However, Traverse City wouldn't be where it is without the incredible people that live in it and the amazing organizations they support. From restoration projects to soup kitchens, these organizations that make Traverse City great prove why Traverse City is one of the best towns in the United States!

Pandora Org



Pandora Org, a medical nonprofit located in Traverse City, focuses its efforts towards finding a cure for neuro-endocrine-immune diseases like fibromyalgia, chronic Lyme disease, and other ailments. They've raised funds for research grants, patient care programs, community education, and physician education programs to better improve the knowledge of these diseases and how they affect the world. So far, they've successfully provided aid and treatment to hundreds affected by the disease with their Compassionate Care programs and transportation to important appointments.

Fox Island Lighthouse Association (FILA)



What started as a group project to repair a lighthouse quickly became the Fox Island Lighthouse Association, a group dedicated to uplifting and renovating the historical landmarks of Fox Island. Boat houses, workshops, and the iconic lighthouse have been restored to their historical glory, preserving over 150 years of history in this Cherry Capital landmark. Their goal is to educate tourists and locals on the importance of historical preservation and respect to important landmarks.

Grand Traverse Regional Land Conservancy (GTRLC)



The Grand Traverse Regional Land Conservancy, or GTRLC for short, has made its goal the preservation and protection of land to benefit the community. Access to shorelines, hiking areas, biking paths, canoeing, fishing, and other activities are prioritized to improve the well being of Traverse City's citizens. Currently, they have protected over 39,000 acres and over 121 miles of shoreline along the lakes, rivers, and streams of the Grand Traverse region.

Habitat for Humanity, Grand Traverse Region



Habitat for Humanity is a national organization dedicated to eliminating homelessness and creating affordable homes for people of any income. Nationally, they invite people of all walks, faiths, and lifestyles to help bring their communities together to eliminate homelessness. The Grand Traverse headquarters has helped over 110 families, and nationally has helped to build hundreds of thousands of homes since 1976. Every 21 minutes, a new Habitat for Humanity home is built somewhere in the world. 

Traverse City Junior Golf Association



The Traverse City Junior Golf Association's goal is "to teach life skills through golf", and they've been doing so since 1984! The Junior Golf Association provides education to younger students by allowing them to build and develop their golfing skills, teaching them patience, respect, and confidence in their abilities. They currently have over 350 youths from ages 5-22 registered, with over 56 tournaments and multiple golf courses to choose from.

These are just a few of the incredible organizations that make Traverse City great, but it wouldn't be where it is today without its wonderful citizens that make it so special!
