Removing the cost barrier
Registration fees, equipment, ammunition, travel — youth sports add up fast. The Mason Foundation steps in so a family's budget never decides whether a kid gets to play.

The Mason Foundation is a Lexington, South Carolina nonprofit dedicated to removing the barriers that keep children from participating in sports and outdoor activities. Their mission is simple and personal: help kids live their lives to a 10, no matter what their family can afford.
Richland Creek Top Guns is proud to stand behind that work. Our shooters know what it means to be handed an opportunity — a squad spot, a coach's time, a place on the line — and the foundation makes sure more kids in our community get that same chance.
Registration fees, equipment, ammunition, travel — youth sports add up fast. The Mason Foundation steps in so a family's budget never decides whether a kid gets to play.
From ball fields to duck blinds to the clay target range, the foundation supports the activities that build confidence, discipline and lifelong friendships.
The foundation carries forward Mason's compassion and sportsmanship, turning his story into opportunity for other young athletes across the Midlands.

This is what the mission looks like on the ground — a young shooter walking off the line with a medal he earned himself. Gear, entry fees and travel keep a lot of kids from ever getting that moment. The Mason Foundation exists to close that gap, and every dollar donated puts another young athlete on the line.
If costs are standing between your child and the sport they love, the foundation wants to hear from you. Families can submit an application for financial assistance directly through The Mason Foundation.
