Imagine the Joy of Their First Match— Let’s Rally Together to Make It Happen!
Calling All Passionate Tennis Enthusiasts,
Imagine the joy on a child's face as they hold a tennis racket for the first time or work tirelessly to win their first match. Every child deserves this opportunity, and you can help make that dream a reality by joining Summer Smash!
Summer Smash is our highly successful peer-to-peer fundraising campaign that supports the USTA Mid-Atlantic Foundation's Junior Scholarship Program. Every dollar raised directly offsets the costs for scholarship recipients to play tennis, covering essential training, equipment, and tournament fees.
We are thrilled to announce that we have two generous donors who will double your impact by offering a match up to $5,500! This means we can raise even more this year with each donation to benefit the scholarship program.
Join Summer Smash and rally your friends, family, colleagues, coaches, and of course, your team to support aspiring tennis players throughout the Mid-Atlantic. And in the spirit of competition we’ve got exciting prizes for the top fundraising teams, including:
Mubadala Citi Open Team ExperienceIncludes (15) tickets for your team to attend the USTA Mid-Atlantic Foundation Suite at the 2024 Mubadala Citi Open in Washington, DC along with special recognition.
