Gifts in Memory or in Honor of Someone Special to You

A donation to Young Mariners Foundation is the perfect way to celebrate important occasions or to honor a friend, colleague, or family member.

Your gift helps “launch a life” of a low income child.

A Memorial Gift is a meaningful way to celebrate the memory of someone important to you. Each memorial gift helps change and improve the lives of low income kids through after-school and summer programs that help them learn and grow.

When your memorial or honor gift is received, the Young Mariners Foundation will notify the person or family you designate, informing them of your thoughtful donation. To make a memorial gift, please contact The Young Mariners Foundation by mail, phone 203-348-9000 or e-mail.
