ElderHelp is deeply grateful to the Southwestern Yacht Club (SWYC) for their generous support and philanthropy over the years.
SWYC was formed in 1925 by visionary yachtsmen looking for ways to enjoy each other’s company and to share their enthusiasm for boating. Since then, the Club has developed into a full-service operation with nearly 750 members embracing all forms of yachting, fishing and social activities and earning a reputation as being the “friendliest club” in the area. SWYC supports not only ElderHelp, but a number of other charitable programs.
The Beacon of Light is a fun evening of cocktails, delicious food and an exciting auction to support ElderHelp. The next event will be held on August 8, 2026. ElderHelp staff and volunteers work along with Yacht Club members to make Beacon of Light memorable for all in attendance.
