ANNUAL FUND

The Annual Fund is PYSF’s mission critical fundraising that impacts every aspect of our program. The Annual Fund bridges the gap between participant fees and operating costs which is $1,300 per sailor. PYSF relies on donations from our generous families, individuals, businesses and grants to help close that gap.

The Annual Fund also allows PYSF to:

  • Recruit and retain world class coaches and enable them with the tools and training to make an immediate impact on our student athletes.
  • Offer new disciplines, equipment, technology and training.
  • Introduce the youth of our broader community to the ocean, the sport of sailing and its life lessons.

Our Annual Fund Goal for 2025-2026 is $150,000.
