SK Guns recently announced its partnership with the MidwayUSA Foundation through the SK Gives Back initiative. This collaboration aims to support youth shooting sports programs across the country and empower the next generation of shooters.

The MidwayUSA Foundation is a non-profit public charity focused on growing youth shooting sports.

“The MidwayUSA Foundation works tirelessly to provide long-term funding to underfunded youth shooting teams, but we can’t do it alone. So, when industry icons like SK Guns step up to help ensure America’s youth have the funding and support needed to pursue their passion, we can’t thank them enough,” John Linquist, relationship manager at the MidwayUSA Foundation said. “We take great pride in partnering with the best in the industry. SK Guns is an innovative leader in heirloom quality firearms that will be treasured for generations. We couldn’t be happier to partner with them in pursuit of the Foundation’s mission.”

Through its sizable grant programs, the MidwayUSA Foundation has assisted thousands of youth shooting teams in acquiring equipment, ammunition and range time. By combining their efforts, SK Gives Back and the MidwayUSA Foundation will work together to ensure that young athletes have the necessary resources to excel in their shooting endeavors.

SK Gives Back currently supports six philanthropic organizations that support shooting sports, youth safety, gun safety education and conservation efforts.

“We are thrilled to partner with the MidwayUSA Foundation through our SK Gives Back Initiative,” Simon Khiabani, owner and founder of SK Guns said. “This group is one of the most effective organizations at funding and promoting youth shooting sports, and with its current Matching Program in 2024 that matches donations to youth shooting sport teams one-to-one, it is easier than ever for communities to fund local shooting teams. This collaboration aligns perfectly with our mission to support and inspire the next generation of shooters.”

SK Gives Back was created in 2020, aiming to give back to those in need locally and nationally by donating firearms and donating financially to organizations committed to enhancing personal growth and development opportunities. Since its inception, the program has made a significant impact by raising $750,000 through its multiple initiatives.
