Community & Charitable Impact

At The Wine Cellar and Gilley’s Enterprises, giving back isn’t an add-on, it’s part of who we are. For decades we’ve partnered with organizations across Turks & Caicos to support youth development, health and wellness, animal welfare, sport, and broader community well-being. Through ongoing sponsorships, fundraising events, direct donations, and volunteerism, we’re committed to strengthening the islands we proudly call home.

Edward C. Gartland Youth Centre

A cornerstone of our community support, the Edward C. Gartland Youth Centre provides safe, enriching spaces and programs for the youth of Providenciales. The centre offers after-school activities ranging from tutoring and homework help to sports, arts, and life skills — all designed to nurture confidence, creativity, and community connection.

Wine Cellar support of youth programs has been longstanding. In the past, funds raised through events such as the Wine Cellar Golf & Fishing Tournament have been donated to the Youth Centre, helping sustain vital programmes that empower young people island-wide.

Youth & Sporting Initiatives

Beyond direct youth centre support, we are proud to contribute to a range of youth and sporting initiatives that help develop talent, discipline, teamwork, and leadership across Turks & Caicos.

This includes support connected to the TCI CARIFTA Team, the Turks & Caicos Islands Swimming Federation, and the Turks & Caicos Islands Basketball Federation, among other programmes and sporting events. These initiatives play an important role in the development and empowerment of young men and women throughout TCI, creating opportunities for competition, mentorship, and regional representation.

Our annual Golf & Fishing Tournament not only brings the community together through sport, but also serves as a platform that contributes to youth and community-focused causes year after year.

TC AIDS Awareness Foundation

The Turks & Caicos AIDS Awareness Foundation works to raise awareness about HIV and AIDS, eliminate stigma, and provide education and support services throughout the islands. Its mission is to empower people living with HIV, promote inclusive community dialogue, and support preventive health efforts.

Wine Cellar and associated partners have supported fundraising and awareness activities linked to this foundation over the years, including community events that rally support for health education and treatment access.

Turks & Caicos Health & Wellness Foundation

The Turks & Caicos Health & Wellness Foundation, formerly part of the broader AIDS Awareness effort, focuses on holistic health initiatives, extending linkage to care, education, and wellness services throughout the community. In addition to HIV-related outreach, the foundation addresses mental health, domestic violence, young women’s empowerment, and inclusivity in healthcare access.

Wine Cellar and Gilley’s Enterprises have participated in collaborative events that benefit the broader mission of this foundation, reinforcing our shared commitment to community health and dignity.

Turks & Caicos Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (TCSPCA)

The TCSPCA is the oldest and most widely recognized animal welfare organisation in Turks & Caicos, dedicated to ensuring that all animals are cared for, treated humanely, and protected from abuse. The charity runs spay and neuter clinics, foster and adoption programmes, and relies on donations and volunteer support to continue its work for animal welfare across the islands.

We’re proud to support TCSPCA through awareness campaigns, philanthropic contributions, and community engagement activities that help give animals a voice and a better life.

Dignity Foundation Turks & Caicos Islands (dftci.org)

The Dignity Foundation of the Turks & Caicos Islands is a charitable organization dedicated to supporting vulnerable seniors and individuals nearing the end of life by providing compassionate, personalized home care services. Their mission is focused on preserving dignity, comfort, and independence for those in need, offering practical assistance, emotional support, pastoral care, and coordinated health resources delivered with respect and compassion. Their team includes experienced caregivers, pastoral counsellors, nutritional advisors, retired medical personnel, and allied health professionals who work in partnership with families and local medical providers to support quality of life at home.
