YOUTH GRANT

The Madison Area Sports Commission Youth Grant mission is to provide financial assistance that serves youth in need, connecting them to sports activities that can provide lifelong enjoyment and health benefits. Since 2011, the MASC Youth Grant Program has awarded $680,021 to local organizations supporting youth in Dane County.

Funded by contributions from the IRONMAN Foundation, MASC signature events, the Destination Madison Foundation, individuals and corporations, grants are awarded to established organizations, for the benefit of the organization or an individual served by that organization. Grant recipients must serve Dane County youth ages seventeen (17) and under.


Grant Applications

The summer grant cycle is now closed. Applications for the next round will be accepted later this year. Sign up for the MASC e-news to be notified of updates.


Donate to the Youth Grant

Sports should be for everyone. That’s why the Madison Area Sports Commission Youth Grant exists—to ensure youth in need across Dane County can access the lifelong benefits of participating in sports. Every dollar you contribute helps break down barriers and build up futures. Hear from grant recipients about how your contribution makes an impact, and join us in making a difference!
