Non-Profit Partnership Overview

The GGTC is committed to supporting local partners that work to promote and sustain a culture of active, healthy living in the Bay Area. Through the Non-Profit Partnership program, GGTC commits to delivering the following components to the selected partner for the two-year program length:

• Funding through GGTC training programs: GGTC will donate a portion of participant program fees from its Olympic and half-Ironman distance training programs each year. Due to the fluctuation in training program participant numbers, the annual award amount varies, although the typical grant is between $3,000 and $4,000 per year.
• Funding through GGTC fundraisers: GGTC will commit to holding at least one fundraiser independent of the training programs each year to generate additional funds our partner.
• Volunteer participation in at least one event with our partner: GGTC commits to participation in at least one volunteer event organized by our partner.
