Each year, SMBSF offers a limited
number of grants to individuals, sailing teams, and sailing programs
that demonstrate a need for extra funding.
Requests may be made for educational
expenses, regatta fees, and other costs of participating in sailing
events and activities. SMBSF also assists sailing programs by partially
funding safety equipment needs and much more. Please, if you have
a question as to which request form is appropriate for you, feel
free to contact us with
your questions.
Although grant requests may be made at any
time, grants are only awarded during regularly scheduled meetings
occurring no fewer than five times per year. It is important to submit
your Grant Request at least one week (seven days) in advance of the
meeting. This will provide the Board of Directors the time needed
to review your paperwork. It is important that those submitting requests
be aware of and plan submissions in accordance with this review and
award schedule.
• Requests that are
not submitted on time or are incomplete may be reviewed at the next
meeting.
• A request for funding does not guarantee funding.
• Awards may be granted for the full amount or only a portion
of the requested amount.
• Those requesting grants are required to enter into a Grant
Agreement with the SMBSF which states the terms and conditions of
the grant.
• The award of a grant neither precludes subsequent requests
for similar or different purposes by the same grantee nor guarantees
a subsequent award for the same or different purposes.
All meetings are open to the
public (except for executive sessions) and held at 7:00pm at Del
Rey Yacht Club 13900 Palawan Way, Marina del Rey, California 90292.

Note: The Foundation may
send a follow-up form to be filled-out and returned soon after
the awardee has completed participation in the funded event/activity.
