CHARITABLE EFFORTS
Habitat for Humanity:
Over the years Sea Gull Century riders have contributed more than $110,000 to build Habitat for Humanity houses in Wicomico County. Thank you for your gifts that helped make the American dream of homeownership possible.
The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s 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-TEAM or 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 $2,540. The committee awarded five scholarships in 2008. See your registration form to make a donation.
Local Non-Profits:
Each year, Sea Gull Century proceeds benefit dozens of non-profit organizations. A sample of organizations receiving contributions last year include the Learn with SU lifelong learning program, Green Earth Book Award, 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.
