The San Diego Sports Medicine Foundation was founded in 2002 to provide a medical safety net for injured youth with limited financial means in order to return them back to health, sports and life. SDSMF has seen hundreds of kids for free – including over 50 MRI exams and approximately 30 surgeries.
SDSMF's signature fundraiser, Taste at the Cove, is a five star event that features food from San Diego's top-rated restaurants, a New York Style Runway Fashion Show, two local honorees (one in the medical field and one professional athlete) as well as silent and live auctions.
Come check out the photos from this fantastic fundraiser and community event!

San Diego Sports Medicine Foundation Mission Statement
SDSMF MISSION STATEMENT
To provide a medical safety net for injured youth with limited financial means in order to return them back to health, sports and life.
SDSMF PURPOSE
The San Diego Sports Medicine Foundation was established to fill an existing health care need for the youth of San Diego. We believe all kids deserve the opportunity to participate in life. We are dedicated to providing a medical safety net for injured youth without access to care. The founders represent a strong partnership between local physicians and community leaders.
The youth in San Diego are more active than ever, especially in sports. With this combination of sports and active lifestyles, unavoidable injury sometimes occurs. Unfortunately, many of these injured kids do not have health insurance. A significant portion of these families do not qualify for governmental assistance as the parents are indeed employed, but in low-wage jobs. There is no mechanism for these kids to be cared for. It is certainly unreasonable to penalize the kids and ask them to wait until they have earned the money to have their necessary medical or surgical care.
Our physicians are of the highest caliber, serving as team physicians for the San Diego Chargers, ESPN X-Games, USA National Rugby Team, San Diego Spirit and the San Diego Riptide. It is the goal of the San Diego Sports Medicine Foundation to bring this top-quality care to the injured youth of San Diego who are in need. Already, over 25 youth have benefited from free surgical care.
The hallmark of the Foundation is that there will be no professional fees paid. Physicians, surgeons, anesthesiologists and therapists will not receive payment for their work. While all professional services are donated, funding is needed for the Foundation for several reasons. Money is needed to help defray the hard cost of the surgery, i.e., medications, gloves, drapes, non-reusable equipment, etc. In addition, the San Diego Sports Medicine Foundation operates free Saturday morning injury clinics for high school athletes, as well as providing research, preventative medicine and fellowship opportunities
