Manly 16ft Skiff Sailing Club
Sailing Foundation
OUR MISSION
The Manly Skiff Sailing Foundation is a non-profit Foundation created to promote youth and the community to participate in sailing while providing a pathway for the youth to progress to 16ft Skiff sailing.
The Foundation supports these activities through outreach programs, training activities, learn to sail, open sailing days, provision of sailing equipment and facilities, community engagement and the encouragement of participation in local and national skiff sailing events.
HOW IT WORKS
Our Foundation is set up with the Australian Sports Foundation (ASF) as an avenue to provide tax deductible donations through our Club. The ASF can accept cash donations as well as physical goods, like boats!
Your donation will be processed through one of our fundraising projects managed by the ASF, and they will issue you a tax receipt. The donation will then be forwarded onto the Manly 16ft Skiff Sailing Club to be used for the designated purpose.
If you’d like to consider donating a boat or a larger amount outside of any of our campaigns, please email us.
CURRENT PROJECTS
Manly Junior Club Fleet
The Manly 16ft Skiff Club is looking to purchase a fleet of NEW club-owned Manly Juniors to assist with getting more kids into sailing.
These boats will be owned and maintained by the Club and used to attract new sailors without having to purchase their own equipment.
The Club will match each donation of $6,000 which is half the cost of a new Manly Junior. In exchange for your generous donation, we will name the boat after your family or other desired boat name, for the life of the boat while at Manly.
