Thanks for visiting the Idea House!

Southern Living built an Idea House in the Cinnamon Shore development in Port Aransas. Completed in May 2009, the Idea House proceeds benefited the Port Aransas Education Foundation, to the tune of a whopping $22,500!

The house was open to the public from June 6 through September 27 for $5/person. For each $5 entry fee, PAEF received $2. PAEF staffed the house with volunteer tour guides. 

The Port Aransas Education Foundation (PAEF) is grateful to Cinnamon Shore developers and to Southern Living magazine for this amazing opportunity. More Info

PAEF Receives Grant Award!

The foundation is off to a good start for next year with the receipt of its first grant for $2,500 from the Earl C. Sams Foundation of Corpus Christi. 

“We continue to try and find outside sources for our donations because we realize that our small community is constantly asked to give," Roberts said. 

The Earl C. Sams Foundation, Inc. is a charitable private family foundation created by Earl C. Sams in New York in 1946. His descendants continue his legacy in Texas where the foundation was reincorporated as a Texas foundation in 1988. The foundation funds are used for many projects in various educational, medical, social, religious and environmental areas.
