2022 Beneficiaries

Operation Help A Hero is a 501 (c) (3) public charity dedicated to the well-being and care of our American military members. Operation Help A Hero programs support military units and families as they prepare for separation, while they endure the challenges of deployment, and as they transition back to the US. Operation Help A Hero projects uplift our military heroes and send a clear message of support to their entire family. Operation Help A Hero connects communities with service members and provides real opportunities to make a difference in the lives of those who serve our country. Operation Help A Hero is an ALL VOLUNTEER organization; all board members and directors volunteer their time to focus donations on the military heroes they serve.

Rose Again Foundation works to help meet the needs and enhance the lives of foster children and emancipated foster youth. Their programs and services provide basic and special needs, in-home tutoring, financial aid for medically fragile and developmentally disabled children along with extracurricular activities and programs to foster children in great need, allowing them to learn, grow, build self-worth, heal and reach their full potential. Rose Again Foundation programs and services help children from falling through the cracks in the foster system and give them the lives and the best start they deserve.

INSTRUCTIONS & INFORMATION:

In submitting this Grant Application, you are applying for consideration as a grant recipient from funds raised at TSO’s Annual Gala & Wimbledon Tournament (typically held in June).

Applications are due December 15, 2022. Former TSO grant recipients of more than $1,000 in the previous year are not eligible to apply until Fall of the next year. Additionally, if your grant was greater than $5000, you are not eligible to apply again for 5 years.

To be considered, please complete the following application by December 15, 2022. All complete applications will be reviewed by our Beneficiary Committee and the Tennis Serves Others Board of Directors. Incomplete or late applications will not be considered.

These videos will be circulated to our full membership for voting. TSO reserves the right to award two equal grants.
