The Wharf Becomes Orange Beach School Diamond Sponsor

Local business continues to invest in education

The Wharf has become synonymous with education in the Alabama coastal region. Their investment in scholarships and school donations have impacted local children's lives and opened paths for their success in the future. Now the Orange Beach City Schools has announced that The Wharf has joined as a Diamond Sponsor for the 2025–2026 school year.

The announcement was made in partnership with the Mako Academics, Arts, and Athletics Club, also known as MAAAC.

The Wharf has been involved with MAAAC since its founding in 2019, showing steady support for local education and community programs.

Diamond is the highest sponsorship level in the district’s program, offering strong advertising benefits and wide-reaching student support.

This sponsorship helps fund academic, arts, and athletics programs across all Orange Beach schools, benefitting every student.

“We are excited to welcome The Wharf,” said Superintendent Randy Wilkes. “Their support continues to create opportunities for our students.”

The Wharf’s general manager, Jade Hubbard, said the company is proud to support local education and the future of the community.
