Let’s Grow Together



We've grown strong roots over the last 20 years. Together we can create legendary moments on and off the court.

The Orlando Magic Youth Fund (OMYF) has recently underwent some exciting changes.

We have changed our name to the Orlando Magic Youth Fund, a fund of the McCormick Foundation to align ourselves with the Foundation’s other fund partners. We are proud to be a part of the McCormick Foundation family of funds.

The McCormick Foundation matches donations and event net proceeds at fifty cents on the dollar raised through OMYF, adding greater impact to donations. In addition, The Orlando Magic and the Foundation cover all administrative costs, increasing the amount available to grant to local nonprofit agencies throughout Central Florida.

We’ve also introduced a new OMYF logo. The colors of this logo reflect the commitment of the Orlando Magic players, coaches, management and the McCormick Foundation to those in need in our community.

In order to better serve the community, we have refined our giving areas. By focusing in the areas of education (literacy); the arts; and health and wellness, specifically nutrition and exercise we can make a greater impact in improving the fabric of our community.

As our community grows, OMYF plans to continue to help children and families in need. The pictures in our gallery reflect how partnering together with local organizations can create positive change in the lives of so many. OMYF has distributed evergreen seedlings as a way to show how we can grow together, working toward the common goal of assisting those who are struggling.
