Camp Thunderbird Scholarship

As a child, Cy, his sister Molly, and cousins Will and Lela attended YMCA's Camp Thunderbird together for several summers. They found this to be a vast playground allowing them to further their love of all things outdoors. The founders of Cy's World decided that sponsoring a child to attend Camp Thunderbird every summer would be a great allocation of funds raised.

Cumberland County Ducks Unlimited - Greenwing Event

The Cy's World Foundation sponsored a GreenWing Event for Ducks Unlimited. The Cumberland County DU spring day for kids was held at the NWRC fishing learning center. Around 250 kids received a fishing pole and baits to fish for catfish in one of several ponds. The action was fast and furious for the kids and parents alike. Cy's World is a life member of this chapter of DU, and plans to sponsor this event annually.

Hunters Helping Kids is a national organization with headquarters in Saxapahaw, NC. The organization sponsors a Hyde County (Matamuskeet) tundra swan hunt annually for youth.  Cy's World sponsored the event which took place on January 12, 2013.  Cy's World partnered with this group after meeting several key volunteers in Hyde County. Six excited youth took part in the hunt .  Ned and Caroline Garber attended the event and reported that a great time was had by all the participants!   Cy and his Dad, Ned, went to Hyde county many times to hunt the impoundments of the Matamuskeet area.

First Tee of the Triad, Winston-Salem

The First Tee of the Triad teaches young people, ages 7 to 18, positive and effective life skills utilizing the great game of golf.
