Supporting MJRC is an excellent way to fulfill
the goal of exposing young people to the
lessons, opportunities and pleasures of rowing.
The variety of ways by which you can support
MJRC are listed below:
Donations can be made by contributions of funds,
securities, or in-kind donations of rowing
equipment or regatta related services.
Donation - Equipment
acquisition, scholarships, support of the MJRC
staff, and the maintenance of the Finn M. W.
Caspersen Rowing Center is wholly dependent on
annual giving and club dues. Please use this
form to make a contribution to help defray
these costs.
Scholarships - MJRC is
committed to making rowing accessible to all.
Scholarships for financial need are provided
through the Rebecca "Little Becca" Annitto
Memorial Fund. Rebecca, a MJRC coxswain, passed
away in the fall of 2005 in a tragic automobile
accident. Although she was tiny in stature,
Rebecca had a huge heart and loved to help
people in need. This fund was dedicated in her
memory for continuing her ambition of helping
others.
Planned Giving - To make a
major impact on the financial stability of MJRC
and the Finn M. W. Caspersen Rowing Center a
personalized planned giving program will
maximize the benefits and give you the personal
financial flexibility that you desire. Please
contact the Executive Director, Kay Worthington,
for more information.
Regatta Sponsorship - MJRC also
receives revenues from regattas hosted on Mercer
Lake. Currently we are in search of title
sponsors for the upcoming championship regattas
on Mercer Lake. A list of all upcoming events is
in the "regatta info" section of the PNRA
website. For more information on corporate
sponsorship packages please contact Executive
Director, Kay Worthington.
Volunteer - The quality and
success of our organization is directly related
to volunteer support. There are a variety of
areas in which we need human resources,
especially at regattas. If you are interested in
volunteering for an upcoming event please
contact parent committee chairs Janis Abraham (
janisabe@aol.com ) or Nancy Suyo (
nancysuyo@comcast.net )
Donations in-kind
Please take a moment to review the list of items
that could be donated in-kind for an upcoming
regatta or for all future regattas at Mercer
Lake. Corporations or individuals that make
in-kind donations of regatta-related equipment
will qualify for recognition as regatta
sponsors.
The success and organization of a regatta goes
far beyond the racecourse. Depending on the size
and scope of the event, there are dozens of
items that MJRC has to rent or purchase to carry
out its mission. Please take a moment to review
our "Wish List" . Potential donors should
contact Executive Director, Kay Worthington
about how they can defray the cost of an item or
donate something outright.
