Fund A Sailor Scholarship Program

A contribution from you will help provide a unique sailing experience to young men and women who would not otherwise have this opportunity, for little or no cost to them.

We know that taking a kid sailing will not cure cancer, feed the hungry, or house the homeless. But our hope is that the kids who sail with us will be inspired to do great things in their futures because they were able to see the world and themselves a little differently from the deck of a schooner.
