About Us

Whether you come once a year to commemorate special moments or live here, you know that the island living in Key West has many benefits and challenges.

Since 1937, Sloppy Joe’s legacy has been a cornerstone built on a tradition of fun and generously giving back to our island community. In 2024, we created the Sloppy Joe’s Foundation, Inc., to continue that legacy of caring for the people and the island that we all love.  

OUR MISSION

Our mission is to create a lasting impact that unites individuals and organizations to nurture our community’s growth and well-being. We do that by making financial contributions to local charitable and civic nonprofits that serve our youth, individuals, and families, art, cultural, and environmental preservation.

OUR VISION

Through its grantmaking to area nonprofits, the Sloppy Joe’s Foundation fortifies our unique island community’s ability to live well, forever experience our unique island art and culture, and sustain its tropical, quirky environment.
