OUR ORGANIZATION

SYC Foundation is a non-profit organization registered as a 501(c)(3) charity with the IRS. Your donation is tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law. We operate with volunteer “staff” and minimum overhead to maximize our funding for boating programs and people. 

Our grants are funded from annual gifts and special events, as well as  the interest from our foundation's endowment.  You may choose to allocate your gift to SYC Foundation to fund this year’s grants or to be earmarked for our endowment as a long-term investment.
