The TGSF Offers Grants to Outside Non-Profits
If your non-profit organization has a project that addresses a need in American steeplechasing, you are invited to apply for financial assistance through the TGSF grant-making program.
We invite proposals central to the work of the Temple Gwathmey Steeplechase Foundation:
• Encouraging discourse about critical issues related to steelechasing;
• Enhancing the safety, fairness, quality, and popularity of the sport;
• Developing and expanding the pool of owner, trainers, riders, and officials;
• Providing educational opportunities for horsemen and the public;
• Nurturing the traditions and the advancement of American steeplechasing and the
spirit of amateurism.
