Habitat for Humanity:
Sea Gull Century riders have contributed more than $100,000 to build Habitat for Humanity houses in Wicomico County. Thank you for your gifts that helped to make the American dream of homeownership possible for 50 local, hard-working families. Habitat expects to start its 53rd home in September—its 10th in the East Church Street neighborhood. Your 2008 gifts will help bring the pride of homeownership back to this troubled inner-city neighborhood.

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Team In Training:
The Sea Gull Century is an official destination of the Team in Training Program. If you have an interest in this program call 1-800-482-TEAMor visit www.teamintraining.org for more information.

Salisbury University Scholarship Fund:
A portion of proceeds over and above Century ride expenses go toward the Sea Gull Century Scholarship Fund at SU. Last year our Century riders donated an additional $2,172. The committee awarded its first five scholarships. See your registration form to make a donation.

Local Non-Profits:
Each year, Sea Gull Century proceeds benefit dozens of non-profit organizations in the community. A sample of organizations receiving contributions last year included the Learn with SU lifelong learning program, Healthy U of Delmarva, Ocean City Lioness Club, Powellville Fire Department Ladies’ Auxiliary, Helping Hands of Beaver Dam, the League of American Bicyclists and University of Maryland Eastern Shore. The Century also provided funding for SU campus enhancements and student organizations, such as Relay For Life. Donations totaled some $75,000.
