Through scholarships and mentorship opportunities, these gifted, but often financially underprivileged, students are provided with the means to pursue their dreams and become future leaders of the Las Vegas hospitality industry.

The Foundation’s primary charitable endeavor is the establishment of annual scholarship awards for Clark County high school students seeking careers in the culinary and hospitality industries. ECF selects its scholarship recipients based on academic ability, extracurricular achievements, personal background and financial need.

ECF awards numerous academic scholarships annually to Clark County high school graduates. Scholarship recipients receive financial support of up to $48,000 that goes toward tuition, books and other fees. Students also benefit from the guidance and support of the Future Leaders of Hospitality Program, which pairs a student and board member together for the duration of the student’s education. The mentor provides guidance, support and assistance with job and internship placement upon graduation.

To support the scholarship program, ECF holds an annual gala that has quickly become one of the most popular events on the Las Vegas social calendar. M.E.N.U.S. (Mentoring and Educating Nevada’s Upcoming Students) is hosted by one of the city’s world-class resorts and features dining stations offering samples from some of the finest restaurants in town and live entertainment.

Founded in March of 2012, they are quickly leading the way to a more Positive and Safe Sports experience for the local children, increasing access to sports related activity and helping to secure the future of the community through the children today!

The Foundation was created with overall major goal to increase the awareness and prevention of sports related safety issues plus so much more. They want to decrease the number of injuries and/or deaths attributive to these safety issues, increase access to sports related activity and increase the positive experiences of the local youth in sports.

They are implementing several amazing free or low-cost programs that are geared towards teaching coaches, parents and children on the recognition and prevention of all safety issues, not just one or two while putting perspective back on the primary benefits of sports related activity.

All of their programs are free or of low-cost to participating children. Some are specifically geared towards at-risk or disadvantaged youth but they are always open to ALL YOUTH across Southern Nevada.

They also strive to provide unparralled access to information on the local happenings and accomplishments from within the local sports community!

Blind Center of Nevada

Blind Center of Nevada

The Blind Center of Nevada assists people who are blind or visually impaired in reaching their highest physical, social, intellectual, and economic potential.

To achieve these objectives they pursue three focus areas: personal development, social interaction, and provident living.

Finding Hope: Life doesn’t stop at blindness, but for many, the hopelessness runs deep. They uplift people by providing emotional rescue, a caring shelter, a welcoming community, and counseling to help members see beyond their visual impairment. Through the Blind Center of Nevada, people find a loving, social refuge—a place that understands and truly cares.

Learning Independence: Within their encouraging family environment, they help members see beyond their visual limits and learn to live an independent life. Their skills training, educational resources, and ongoing assistance all work together to ignite a can-do-spirit that defies boundaries and fuels personal growth.

Pursuing Greatness: Best of all, their center helps members visualize their true potential and work toward achieving great things. Through a wide range of programs—including music, art, fitness, education, and vocational mentorship—they help people reach goals they can be proud of. Greatness isn’t limited to those with sight. They help members achieve great things while living lives that are unbound—and unlimited.

Animal Network Cause for Paws

Animal Network Cause for Paws

Animal Network is a 501(c)(3) not for profit corporation with years of experience dedicated to rescuing homeless and abandoned animals from the streets, shelters and owners who can no longer care for their animals. By working with committed volunteers, foster homes, shelters, other rescue organizations, local veterinarians, trainers and boarding facilities they are able not only to find loving homes for these animals but solutions to help owners keep their animals. They have a network of volunteers and supporters who generously volunteer their time, resources, homes and hearts to help them succeed. Unfortunately, they do not have a centralized physical shelter instead they house their companion animals in boarding facilities or volunteer’s homes. They also try to help owners so they do not have to lose their four legged family member with medical assistance and short term temporary boarding when possible. They pride ourselves in taking the animals that no other rescue will help and they do not discriminate by breed. Additionally, they encourage spay/neuters and microchipping of all animals and will pay for an owned animal while remaining in the owners custody.

SunBuggy is proud to donate to this worthwhile cause!  We are donating a package worth over $440 with the hope that it will benefit the Animal Network Cause for Paws.
