Mabel Fairbanks Skatingly Yours Fund

The Mabel Fairbanks Skatingly Yours Fund financially assists and supports the training and development of promising Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) figure skaters with the goal of helping them realize and achieve their maximum athletic potential.

Inspired by the ideals and values of U.S. Figure Skating Hall of Fame member Mabel Fairbanks, annual awards are executed by the joint efforts of U.S. Figure Skating and the Lisa McGraw Figure Skating Foundation. Awards will be given to figure skating athletes who demonstrate and emphasize the attributes of good sportsmanship, commitment, perseverance and determination in striving to be their very best in the sport.

Criteria:

• Identify as Black, Indigenous or People of Color (BIPOC).
• Be current members of U.S. Figure Skating and an active competitor in singles, pairs or ice dance.
• Have competed at a U.S. Figure Skating Sectional Final event at the juvenile, intermediate, novice, junior or senior level once during the past two competitive seasons or equivalent, and must be registered to compete in the current season.
