CURRENT CAMPAIGNS

E.L. Crossley lost two rowing shells over the last season to significate damage. Our most urgent need is to replace both of these, with an estimated cost of $20,000- $50,000 (used) each. Major equipment donors are given a boat naming opportunity, all donors are appreciated and no donation is too small.

Annual purchase of new oars and equipment, as well as, repair and replacement parts for older boats is crucial. Approximately $10,000 per year is needed.

Our team is required to pay school board maintenance fees to be able to train after school and on weekends. To ensure that our team can participate in regattas, boats and equipment must be rented to make up for the shortfall. A contingency fund needs to be replenished for unexpected equipment and regatta expenses during the season. Approximately $8,000 per year is needed.

In addition, each athlete is responsible for the cost of third-part training facilities, purchase of uniform, regatta fess , rowing club membership fees, transportation and accommodations for out-of-town regattas. No student is turned away due to lack of funds.

School Cash Online provides an opportunity for individuals to contribute towards the acquisition of a diverse range of rowing gear, including shells, oars, ergs and enhancement of training facilities. Many of these acquisitions necessitate funding beyond what our membership fees can cover, which we strive to keep affordable to ensure accessibility to rowing at E.L. Crossley for all. Donors who contribute significant amounts will have the privilege of naming newly acquired boats, while all contributions, regardless of size, will be acknowledged and valued. Click HERE to donate.

All donations processed through School Cash Online will be eligible for tax receipts. Supporters can contribute funds via credit card.

The team would greatly benefit from the following categories of gift cards that would be used to reduce the overhead cost of the program/.

  • Gas gift cards – for transportation of boat trailer to regattas
  • Grocery Store gift cards – for fueling the athletes tent at regattas
  • Visa or Mastercard gift cards – for parts, tools and equipment.
