The SYC Foundation supports a broad range of educational, training and competitive endeavors. Strong support is always considered for programs for younger boaters engaged in sailing and rowing programs, grants to allow talented youth (individuals and teams) to compete effectively in regattas and championships, and for maritime education programs. 

 

The Foundation donates approximately $100,000 annually to deserving recipients, a portion of which goes to supporting national level competitors. The size of grants awarded depends on the size of the program and/or need. (please see our Grant Guidelines below), but typically grants are between $500 and $5,000. To apply for funding, please submit a grant request application.
