OUR MISSION IN ACTION

The SYC Foundation supports a broad range of educational, training and competitive endeavors. Strong support is always considered for programs for younger boaters, scholarships to allow talented youth to compete effectively, and for maritime education. The Foundation is also happy to provide scholarships for young sailors to attend the Seattle Yacht Club Summer Sailing Program.

The Foundation donates approximately $50,000 annually to about 20 deserving recipients, half of which goes to supporting national level competitors. The size of grants awarded depends on the size of the program and/or need, but typically grants are between $100 and $5,000. Scholarships are based on need. To apply for funding, please submit a grant request application.
