Over three decades ago, DC’s LGBTQ+ and allied tennis enthusiasts came together to establish a nonprofit charity tennis tournament called the Capital Classic Tennis Tournament. The Cap Classic, as the tournament has come to be known, has grown over the years and is now one of the biggest tennis tournaments on the Gay and Lesbian Tennis Association (GLTA) World Tour. Each year, it attracts approximately 300 participants from DC and around the world. We cannot continue this work without the support of our incredible sponsors, and we invite you to join us in that effort. Now, more than ever, this work is especially important as the LGBTQ+ community is under constant attack. We are excited to work with our sponsors to create an inclusive event and to declare to our community that—regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity—you are welcome here! Your donation helps us run this tournament and raise funds to support charitable causes. This year the Capital Classic is proud to again support the Wanda Alston Foundation (WAF). Any payment to the Capital Classic, as part of the Capital Tennis Association (CTA), is not tax deductible as CTA is organized as a 501(c)(4) organization. CTA is a nonprofit and proceeds for the Capital Classic go solely towards funding the tournament and supporting the LGBTQ+ charities supported by the tournament, but because CTA is a 501(c)(4), your donation is not tax deductible.
