Donate & Fundraise
Fulfilling our mission is only possible due to the dedication of Seattle’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 26 years ago, we’ve raised over $1.5 million, and keep it local to benefit those here in the Pacific Northwest.
Join us on September 21, 2025, and help make this our best year yet!
