Donate & Fundraise
Fulfilling our mission is only possible due to the dedication of Puget Sound’s rowing community. We are thankful for their support in volunteering, racing, and fundraising – year after year.
Leaving breast cancer in our wake
Rowers are driven, passionate, and relentless, all qualities that make them powerful allies in the fight against breast cancer. Each year, we come together not just to race, but to leave breast cancer in our wake.
As a Rowing Cares event, we proudly support local foundations focused on early detection and post-diagnosis care. Since our first event 27 years ago, we’ve raised over $1.6 million and keep it local to benefit those here in the Pacific Northwest.
Join us on September 20, 2026, and help make this our best year yet!
Tips to GiveButter are optional, but they help keep the platform free – your support is greatly appreciated!

Help Resources
Setting up your team fundraising page unites all your donors in one place, helping your team pull toward one common goal while supporting local breast‑cancer care and support.
Inviting others to join your fundraising team builds power and momentum. The more people who join, the stronger your pull toward your goal and the greater the impact for patients in need.

(Donating A Mammogram Per Every Rower)
Join us in making a life-saving difference – every dollar raised helps fund crucial early detection through mammograms. No contribution is too small, and together, we can provide screenings for those in need.
Fundraisers who raise a minimum of $500 will receive our exclusive dry-wick athletic T-shirt as a token of appreciation for their significant contribution.
Help us turn every stroke into support. Fundraise today and be a force for early detection!
Home of the Pink Erg
Exclusive to our event, the Pink Erg is more than just a prize, it’s a powerful symbol of strength, perseverance, and community. Since its inception in 2016, this coveted award has challenged teams to push beyond limits and raise the most funds in support of those impacted by breast cancer.
Cherished by rowers who have been directly or indirectly affected, the Pink Erg stands as a beacon of inspiration, whether during tough erg tests, moments of reflection, or personal battles. It holds deep meaning for many who have lost loved ones to this terrible disease, gives strength to those fighting illness, or uplifts anyone facing difficult times. More than a trophy, it transforms competition into a heartfelt tribute to resilience and solidarity.
