The Collins Youth Tennis Foundation was formed in 1990, when Ed Collins
received a grant from the Intercollegiate tennis Association. Since then
hundreds of under-served local kids have received financial support for
instruction, camps, equipment and tournament travel.

In 2018 CYTF expanded its charitable goals. In addition to youth tennis,
the Foundation also lends a hand to individuals and organizations that
inspire and teach San Diego youth in the areas of academics, recreation
and the arts. Our belief is that it's through lifelong activities (such as tennis)
that a person gains self-confidence, independence, self-discipline and
curiousity--attributes that help achieve success in other areas as well.

For more info, please contact Ed at 619-296-3436 or ed@ectennis.com

CYTF is a 501 (c) (3) public charity. Donation may be unrestricted
(we decide how to use it), or designated to an individual or program.

When Ed Collins asked me to chair his Send-a-Kid-to-Camp campaign, I readily agreed. Combined with my lifelong passion for tennis, and my son Ted's own camp experience with Ed, I know this was worthy of my full support. 

Through the years the Collins Youth Tennis Foundation has assisted hundreds of youngsters, whose families couldn't afford to send their children to camp. Donations are tax deductible. Collins Youth Tennis Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization. Families that apply are asked to pay what they can to cover the cost; CYTF and the camp make up the difference.

Now in its 50th year, Ed's camps have provided a memorable summertime experience for thousands of aspiring junior tennis players.

And what an experience it is. A chance to spend time away from home, mix with kids from different backgrounds and learn some responsibility. Besides the tennis and fun, the children learn basic life skills.

Please join me in helping worthy kids enjoy a complete tennis experience.

Sincerely,

Dick Enberg, CBS Sports
