Watch the interview with Gerald Binder, President SRYFOUNDATION, with Belize 5 News

2022 Award Ceremony was held July 30, 2022 see news story below

What a great news story. We received over 130 scholarship applications! It was tough choosing from so many deserving candidates therefore we stretched and awarded 9 full and 13 partial scholarships....way beyond the 8 we thought initially. We also decided to help 9 more students with tuition awards for high school and college. These deserving young ladies and men have received much of their school supplies (see slide show below) and on July 30, 2022 they will receive their awards along with the rest of their items.

Over 135 scholarship applications, countless hours to review, such a difficult final selection

Our Mission

We’ve worked on improving the lives of people, young and old, all throughout Belize.
1. Provide support to students who need help achieving a minimum high school education;
2. Help children and elderly in need of medical supplies, testing, or care
3. Provide basic supplies & support to single parent families

We Find & Help

We are in search of opportunities to help students, seniors and single parents in need. We approach and help as many as possible.

We Provide Care

So many people need a helpful hand and support at every stage of life. Here’s where we take care of them like our own.

We Support Education

High School in Belize is not free, 1 out of 4 students do not finish their education. We provide high school scholarship awards and school supplies to those in need.

We Lift Spirits

We strive to provide something special during those special times for families who otherwise could not afford it.

We proudly support autism awareness and cancer research

It's what we do...every dollar you donate buys something

SRYFOUNDATION BELIZE

We are dedicated to helping those in need in Belize. In particular, we strive to provide education opportunities to students who otherwise do not have the resources to attend school. Our full scholarships provide everything for a student, including tuition, books, computers, printers, uniforms, supplies and so much more.

We held our Christmas Celebration with food and toys for children in December, 2022. Our goal was to bring joy to 450 children. Your donations helped make this possible. It was a huge success!
