British Columbia, Canada – We are constantly looking for ways to provide kids with opportunities to adopt the sport of tennis. Whether it is through an after-school community program or through a club, our goal is to provide kids with opportunities to get started, to share our passion for the game and to encourage them to be active for life. Tennis BC has a number of fundraising and donation programs available that support both community youth and high performance tennis programs in BC.
Through the support of our amazing tennis community in BC this year, we have raised over $11,000 through the Vancouver Foundation for our two legacy funds: the Community Youth Tennis Fund and the Edward Siemens Memorial Tennis Fund.
The Community Youth Tennis Fund, which had $10,800 donated to it this year, supports the development of youth tennis at the community level. The Edward Siemens Memorial Tennis Fund, which had $250 donated to it this year, supports one or more high performance junior athletes competing for Team BC.
On behalf of Tennis BC and all the athletes who benefit from these funds, we would like to extend a huge thank you to all the generous donors this year that donated a total of $11,050.
Donations to any of our funds and foundations are tax deductible. With the holiday season upon us, it is the season for giving! It’s not too late to donate this year. Learn more about our funds and foundations here.
If you have any questions or you would like to learn more about donating, please send us an email to info@tennisbc.org.
