SK Guns recently contributed to fundraisers held by the National Police Bloodhound Association (NPBA) and MidwayUSA Foundation through its SK Gives Back program. The philanthropic branch of SK Guns is dedicated to supporting local and national 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations invested in the betterment of the firearms community. The most recent fundraising efforts are evidence of the company’s commitment to that initiative.
“SK Gives Back has started 2025 with a wealth of success in supporting partners new and old,” said Simon Khiabani, owner and founder of SK Guns. “We are thrilled to introduce our partnership with the local sheriff’s department in our new home.”
Following its relocation to St. Augustine, Fla., SK Guns partnered with the St. John’s County Sheriff’s Office and its Bloodhound K9 Division. SK Gives Back helped raise over $7,000 for the NPBA at its January 2025 seminar. SK’s involvement in the event contributed to doubling the donations typically received at an NPBA seminar.
“I’m excited to share that the NPBA successfully raised thousands for the association through the partnership with SK Guns during our Florida seminar,” said NPBA Public Information Officer Megan Osborne-Smith. “It was an amazing contribution that really got our members excited!”
SK Guns donated branded shirts, patches, 1911 full-size Purpleheart grips and one Lost State of Transylvania “Daniel Boone” 1911 pistol, which were included in the seminar raffle. These donations led to the seminar raising more than twice the funds than any previous event. To learn more about NPBA or its seminars, click here.

SK Gives Back also contributed to the MidwayUSA Foundation’s Giving Tuesday fundraiser prior to the new year. On December 3, 2024, supporters received a raffle ticket for a chance to win SK Gun’s Italian Renaissance Gold Series for every donation of $1,000 to the foundation.
“It’s exciting to partner with sponsors who not only believe in the work we do but invest in our mission. Thanks to the generosity of SK Guns, our Giving Tuesday campaign generated over one million dollars for youth shooting sports programs across the nation,” said Dani Farris, marketing manager at the MidwayUSA Foundation.
This initiative raised $560,000 for youth shooting programs across the United States. Matching all donations made on Giving Tuesday, the MidwayUSA Foundation raised a total of $1,200,000 for youth shooting programs.
