SBJSA is a "not-for-profit charitable organization chartered by the NYS Education Dept. It is registered for and recognized as a 501c3 charitable corporation thus all donations of money, material, or volunteer work are fully tax deductible for IRS purposes. SBJSA will provide proper IRS documentation for donations and gifts. We accept scholarships, grants and sponsorships and/or gifts to our endowment funds.
The Sodus Bay Junior Sailing Association’s goal is to raise $400,000 in gifts, pledges and in kind donations. The Capital Campaign began on the night of the 50th Anniversary Celebration of SBJSA which was held on July 22, 2006. We hope to reach the $400,000 mark and celebrate this success with a ceremonial ground breaking event at SBJSA on July 4, 2007.

We are currently in the midst of an effort that will prepare us for next summer -- and many years to come! We are raising funds for three things; to replace our aging, tired educational building with a new larger modern facility, to replace our worn and mended fleet of boats and to build a permanent endowment fund for our future needs.
