The Mardy Fish Foundation was established to support the youth of Indian River County. The Foundation has utilized funds from Mardy's Tennis & Jake's Music Fest to provide after school programs in the community. The Foundation opened the Pelican Island Elementary School/Mardy Fish Music Club and Health & Fitness Club September 11, 2007. These were after school programs that provided a place for children to go and partake in various activities to improve themselves through sports, music, art, and dance.
The Mardy Fish Foundation has successfully expanded to all 13 elementary schools in Indian River Schools with the addition of numerous programs including but not limited to Dance, Music, Sports, Cheerleading, Karate, Health & Fitness.
