Joan and Macon Brock of Virginia Beach, Virginia, are extraordinary philanthropists. Their impressive history of giving spans decades and interests, and reflects their personal desire to leave this world better than they found it. In keeping with this noble goal, their gift to The Brock Environmental Center at Pleasure House Point will indelibly enrich and improve the Hampton Roads community.

"The Chesapeake Bay Foundation is a leader in environmental initiatives, championing collaboration with local conservation groups in support of clean waterways and the Chesapeake Bay itself.

The Brock Environmental Center will be a destination for environmental education and cooperation in the region. This project is an unparalleled chance for conservation, education, restoration, and community-building, one that we are honored to support," Macon recently stated.

Joan and Macon have deep roots in the community, donating their time and support to many local organizations. CBF is immensely grateful for their leadership.
