Support the Foundation

Your Generosity Builds Futures.

When you give to the Make It Happen Foundation, you're not just making a donation — you're investing in a young person's confidence, skills, and future in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Your Donations at Work

We've Seen What Happens When a Community Gives.

In 2025, the USVI community came together at the inaugural T-Off-4-Tuition™ Golf Benefit — and the result was life-changing.

Gelysia Anderson, the Make It Happen Foundation's first scholarship recipient, was able to clear her outstanding tuition balance, walk across the stage at Howard University, and graduate with a Bachelor's degree in Psychology. She has since been accepted to the University of Maryland, College Park for her graduate degree.

That's what your donation makes possible. Not a statistic — a person. A future. A community that refused to give up on one of its own.

"This was and is exactly my intent and the reason why the Make It Happen Foundation exists."

— Nykole Tyson, Founder
