About
Norcal Crew is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the development of youth through the sport of rowing. Over 100 high school athletes are currently in training for competition on the national level, including myself; we practice over 15 hours each week and compete at regattas.
What I’m Raising Money For
Over the past two years, Norcal has nearly doubled in size. Our boathouse facility is small, and having top-of-the-line equipment helps us maintain an edge and continue to train effectively. The erg-a-thon is a chance to support those efforts. Our goal is to pull at least one million meters and raise $80,000 collectively to bring in new oars, rowing machines, high quality boats, and coaching launches.
Why You Should Give
Your donation enables my team to support any athlete who wants to be a part of the organization. We are currently able to provide a quality experience to anyone, regardless of their athletic background, natural ability, or financial situation. At the same time, we are training hard and competing frequently, at local races as well as prestigious national ones such as Head of the Charles in Boston. We need new equipment and support to be able to continue to have these opportunities going forward. This team is a huge part of my life and I work towards its success every day, and I would really appreciate it if you'd help me out. Thank you!

Sponsorship levels
$50,000
Sponsor a new truck!
Over the past three years, Norcal has grown to the point where we take two trailers to every regatta, and one of the trailers is the largest vehicle of it's class allowed on the road by the DOT. We need a new truck capable of pulling this trailer safely and efficiently, so that our equipment and coaches can get to the race course safely.
$5,000
Sponsor a new engine for a coaching launch
In order to instruct, train, and keep their crews safe, coaches need launches with working engines. We are replacing old engines, and bringing in new launches to to be able to handle more coaches and more athletes.
$3,500
Sponsor a new set of oars
Allow us to purchase a new set of cutting edge racing oars from Concept II, the leading oar manufacturer in the US. A full set of oars allows us to pass our current oars down the ranks, so that all of our athletes benefit. A full set contains 8 built-to-order oars. Each will be permanently dedicated to a name of your choosing, and a picture will be provided of your athletes with the new oars.
