2021 Best of Emerald Coast - Give Your Best Fundraiser
Out of an abundance of caution for everyone’s safety, due to the uptick in COVID-19 variants, Emerald Coast Magazine is cancelling the 2021 Best of Emerald Coast event.
Though we will not gather together this year, we encourage you to celebrate the 2021 Best of the Emerald Coast winners by frequenting their businesses, using their services, and by showing your generous support for our beneficiary, the Junior League of the Emerald Coast.
You can do this by taking part in our Give Your Best fundraising campaign.
For the 12th consecutive year, we are proud to benefit the Junior League of the Emerald Coast, an organization of nearly 300 women united by their commitment to bettering the community — and themselves — through volunteering.

Each year, this special outreach program provides clothing, books, school supplies and other essential needs to more than 400 children in our Okaloosa and Walton County elementary schools.
