Southwest Florida-based Companies, Gulf Coast Wealth Advisors and Yellowfin Yachts, Present a Youth 529 College Scholarship for the Historic Fishing Tournament
SARASOTA, Fla., Oct. 25, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Gulf Coast Wealth Advisors and YellowFin Yachts are presenting a youth 529 College Scholarship at the 27th Annual Fall Suncoast Kingfish Classic fishing tournament. YellowFin Yachts is presenting a $2,000 scholarship and Jeff LaBelle of Gulf Coast Wealth Advisors is administering the 529 college scholarship for the first-place youth tournament winner.
The tournament is being held at Treasure Island, Florida November 15-17, 2018. Established in 1991, the tournament was started to highlight the excellent sport fishing found off the west coast of Florida but also serves as important fundraisers for various local and international charitable organizations. It is the longest running King Mackerel Tournament on Florida’s west coast.
“529 plans and scholarships can play an important role in making college more accessible and affordable, and paving the way for students to be confident in both their pursuit and completion of their passion and degree. When students can successfully earn their degrees, and the process is not burdensome or postponed, our greater society and economy are benefited,” said Jeff LaBelle, Founder and CEO of Gulf Coast Wealth Advisors.
Wylie Nagler, Founder of YellowFin Yachts said, “I grew up in south Miami, fishing out of small skiffs, watching offshore races and participating in similar fishing tournaments. My grandfather raced boats and was a yacht broker. He turned his passion into a business and I followed suit. If I can inspire one young person in the same way, I’m honored to support that.”
