Serving youth on and off the court.

The Sally Wilkey Foundation is a nonprofit in Indian River County, Florida, whose mission is to enrich the lives of underserved youth through tennis instruction, academic support and life skills development.

Changing lives through the power of tennis, mentors & meals.

Tennis is more than learning to play a game. Tennis is a healthy activity that teaches discipline, commitment and social skills - all of which aid the development of cognitive skills and support positive decision making.

Tennis the segue into our programs but we are not solely about tennis. We are about the social impact and real-world difference our nonprofit makes starting with our mission statement that outlines our goals and objectives - serving youth on and off the court.

I never knew how much fun tennis could be until I joined the program. I’ve made new friends and I have more confidence in myself.

HOME COURT PROJECT

We are excited to introduce our HOME COURT PROJECT, a groundbreaking initiative set to revolutionize the Sally Wilkey Foundation and the lives of local youth. This campaign is straightforward: constructing two tennis courts for our programs at the Westside Racquet Club - providing a permanent home base for our kids. With a dedicated space, we eliminate the need to lease court and community facilities, offering a secure environment for kids to gather, play, and learn. Our commitment to making a tangible social impact and effecting real-world change is unwavering. By establishing our home courts, we not only ensure a stable and sustainable future for our foundation but also generate an income stream for the upkeep and maintenance of our facilities. This ensures that every dollar raised will have a lasting impact, guaranteeing that generations of youth benefit from our programs for years to come.

But we can't do it alone. We need your support to make this vision a reality. By contributing to our capital campaign, you'll be investing in the future of our community and empowering local youth to thrive.

Here's how you can help:

- Donate to our campaign and spread the word to your friends, family, and colleagues.

- Share our campaign on social media and help us reach a wider audience.

 Together, we can build more than just courts – we can build a brighter future for our community.

 Thank you for your generosity and support.
