GIVE BACK. CREATE OPPORTUNITY.

Two Ways to Make a Difference

Your support helps give young people opportunities to participate, travel, compete and pursue their education. Debby Schafer and Jim Schafer are committed to reaching more kids with funding, equipment and scholarships. Expanding that work takes funds and volunteers.

The Foundation charges no fees and pays no salaries. It operates at a deficit by design, with the objective of giving back to our kids 100% of what is donated.

To date, the Foundation has helped raise and donated over $50,000 for people in need. Choose how you would like to help carry that work forward, or contact us about volunteering.

FINANCIAL SUPPORT

Make a Financial Donation

A financial gift helps the Foundation respond to needs and create opportunities for young people. Help us continue a family tradition of coaching, mentoring and giving back.
