Frying Pan Tower™ Adventure Trip for 2 Fundraiser
Fundraising Goals
Frying Pan Tower™ is a labor of love for those who share the same lofty goals for restoring the tower for the purposes of providing safety to mariners in the Atlantic Ocean, environmental research and education studies, and shelter to a natural ecosystem for marine wildlife. All restoration projects are volunteer-driven and coordinated by FPTower Inc., a federal and state (NC) registered non-profit organization.
Our mission is to RESTORE, PROTECT, and PRESERVE the Frying Pan Tower™. All proceeds from the Frying Pan Tower Adventure Trip for 2 Raffle will be used to fund several urgent projects including:
- Replacing the water-level cross pipes
- Repairing the facility's main support trusses
- Building new water level access stairs and walkways
- Replacing the tall corner tower lantern room windows
