***Donating to our fund via the GLF makes your donation tax-deductible***

Donations to Go Fourth are Tax-Deductible

Go Fourth is a component fund of the Greater Lewes Foundation, as we do not have our own independent 501(c)3 designation. All donations are processed on our behalf by the GLF, and thus are tax-deductible.  


All donations are acknowledged and a formal letter for tax purposes will be provided from the GLF for donations in excess of $250.

Please Donate to Support our Fireworks

Why Donate to Go Fourth Lewes? We are "For the People! By the People!"

  • The Go Fourth Fireworks are truly community fireworks, funded by our neighbors and organized by volunteers. We are not sponsored by the City of Lewes or any other entity, but we work in collaboration and cooperation with our local government, police, fire, EMS, and other organizations. 
  • So, who pays for the fireworks? Donors. That is why we need your help. We know it's been a difficult year for our local businesses, so we are asking our neighbors, who are able, to pitch in with donations. Big or small, we appreciate and need them all. 
  • Fireworks are expensive, and our present costs are more than $75,000. Expenses include the professional fireworks show by Schaefer Fireworks PLUS the barge to launch the fireworks, compensation for emergency staff and law enforcement, facilities clean up, and much more. It costs a lot to put on a show like this. Private donations, not the City of Lewes or any named sponsor, pay for this great event. 
  • All donors are acknowledged and thanked, by level, on our website.  
  • Donations over $250 will receive a formal tax acknowledgement letter. 
  • Donors who donate over $1000 can request a donation picture and submit logo for website display.


We are not running ads to seek donations or sending out formal solicitations to a small group. Go Fourth Lewes wants to reach out to all in our greater community who come to enjoy the July 4th Fireworks and ask everyone to donate!  We are acknowledging our donors by listing them here on our website and on Facebook. If you make a large donation we will be sure to release it to the press and shout it out on social media! Scroll to the bottom of the page for donor levels and contact us if you have any questions or wish to make a large gift to the Go Fourth Lewes fireworks. 

Thanks in advance for your support!
