Temperatures ran high, but checks ran higher in the Art Village Courtyard on Tuesday, October 15. The Gulfport Merchants Chamber (GMC) granted a total of $4,500, or $1,500 each, to three charitable foundations of their choosing, which included Women with Purpose, The Enroy Foundation and The Gulfport Historical Society.
