Mardy Fish Children's Foundation

Mardy Fish Children's Foundation The Mardy Fish Children's Foundation is dedicated to supporting health, fitness and nutrition based programs for schools and organizations in IRC

Mardy supports that a long-standing fundamental of our country is to keep our children safe and healthy. For the children of low-income households the uncertainty of personal safety, and the insufficient exposure in early childhood to the importance of physical activity and nutritional education have contributed to a national crisis. We work to provide a solution with our “Kids On Courts” and “Ach

ievable Dreams” programs - by partnering with families, Indian River county school teachers, businesses and the greater community – to help our local children to develop a healthy lifestyle.

Fall is Here!
A Big "Thank You" to You

Thanks to all of you loyal donors and supporters, we are helping just shy of 1800 children in Indian River County have fun, stay healthy and make friends this fall. They are enjoying tennis, golf, chorus, gardening, equine, swimming, cheerleading, basketball, officer training, tutoring, reading and writing, and we even added a new pickleball program for kids at the Boys and Girls Club this grant cycle!

None of this would be possible without the financial support so many of you provide at our fundraising events and throughout the year! You are truly helping us make a difference for our kids!

Summer 2025 Programs were a huge success!!

We are proud to announce that we helped almost 800 children have fun, make friends and stay active this summer in camp activities ranging from tennis, golf, basketball, football and cheerleading to learning about our beautiful Indian River through ELC programs as well as honing their school and work related skills in several academic enrichment and mentoring programs held by some of our other nonprofit partners. All good things to help our kids be better prepared and ready to face the challenges of the upcoming school year. Thank you to our donors and supporters for helping us make this happen for our kids here in Indian River County.

Our Tournament is Moving to the Island in 2026 🎾🌴

We’re excited to share that the 2026 Mardy Fish Children’s Foundation Tennis Championships will be held at Sea Oaks Club for the first time ever! The event is set for May 4–10, and we can’t wait to bring the tournament to this beautiful, tennis-loving community.

Sea Oaks offers a fantastic setup for players and fans alike—with a stadium court, upgraded food and beverage facilities, and convenient parking. Plus, being on the island brings us even closer to many of our longtime supporters.

We’re incredibly grateful to Vero Beach Tennis & Fitness Club at Timber Ridge for being such a welcoming home to our tournament these past three years. Their support has helped us grow the event into what it is today.

The move to Sea Oaks is a one-year partnership for now, and we’re looking forward to seeing how it all comes together. The excitement from the Sea Oaks community has already been overwhelming, and we know it’s going to be a special experience.

More details will be shared in the coming months, but for now—we hope you’ll mark your calendars and get ready for an amazing week of tennis in a new setting next May!
