Why We Do It

The Carnival is sponsored by the Glen Burnie Improvement Association (GBIA). GBIA members, their families, friends, community members and business volunteer their time over the eight nights to raise money for use in the community.

Part of the money is used to maintain the GBIA building. The building is used, at no cost, by many local non-profit organizations for activities, such as meetings, flea markets and bingo.

GBIA also uses the money to make cash contributions to local non-profit groups, such as scouts, sports leagues,schools and other charities.

GBIA's goal is to sponsor a wholesome event which people can enjoy while they help the community of Glen Burnie.
