The Inter-Lake Yachtsmen’s Fund, to which all private donations are tax-deductible, is an IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) charitable organization. Firstar Bank holds the assets, but they are administered by the nine Trustees above who are elected by The Fund’s members (its donors.)

Listed below are some of the grants The Fund made last year. This ambitious program of support can only continue through your generosity. We urge you to become a member of The Fund or renew your old membership. We’ll gladly recognize you in I-LYA’s yearbook and other publications. Simply complete and mail the form on the following page. It’s worthwhile...it’s tax-deductible... and it is greatly appreciated.

**Sail Donations ** Vessel Donations

**Bequests in Memory of Friends and Loved Ones

** Property ** Securities.
