FOUNDATION NEWS UPDATES

The Foundation's Mission

The Santa Monica Bay Sailing Foundation was established in 1990 to provide support for youth and adult sailing programs. The Foundation also offers funding for sailing and watersports programs for at-risk youth, providing opportunities for young people who might otherwise be unable to enjoy these activities.

 

Foundation grants provide the equipment and instructors needed to promote, teach, and encourage safe and skilled boating in the recreational and competitive environments. Many of the finest young sailors who call the Santa Monica Bay home received support from the SMBSF.

Youngsters usually get their first sailing experience in Optimists

Thanks to generous donors and affiliated yacht clubs, Foundation-supported programs instill self-confidence, independence and maturity in young people who might otherwise not have the opportunity to participate in character-building watersport activities.
