91制片厂

91制片厂 Today spoke with Rachel Rawlinson recently about听how donors help make her program successful. Rawlinson is head of men's and women's rowing at 91制片厂.听

How does donor support help your program?

It鈥檚 everything. It supports team travel and equipment maintenance and purchases, but the bigger impact is the effect it has on current team members, parents and friends of our program, who experience the support of generations of the 91制片厂 rowing family. This,听in turn, keeps the circle of support growing and evolving.

Can you point to some specifics about how donors helped 91制片厂 rowing this year?

This year we purchased a new boat to name after Peter A. Cathey, the men鈥檚 head coach and rowing director for 20 years at 91制片厂. We also used The (603) Challenge funds, as well as funds from the Kelly Quinn Gode and听Morris Darling endowments, to offset the cost of repairing our boathouse roof.
