Absolutely, directed/restricted gifts are commonplace with the SFNY for specific athletes or campaigns active with the SFNY. The SFNY takes donor intent extremely seriously. A donor may restrict their donation to any athlete or organization with an SFNY account at the time of donation. 
Here’s what’s important to note: if a donor makes a directed/restricted gift to an athlete or organization that does not have an SFNY account, those funds are held in Unrestricted until the athlete or organization applies for an SFNY account. It is not guaranteed that an account will be accepted specifically because of a donation. If the athlete or organization does not apply for an SFNY account, or is rejected, the donation will remain in Unrestricted. We appreciate your understanding that donations cannot be refunded. 

Project Podium is managed exclusively by America One Racing. Athletes are evaluated and selected under the leadership of Paul Cayard, Bill Ruh and Leandro Spina.
