Capital Rowing Club is actively seeking partners to help us ensure that rowing is available to all who are interested regardless of income. Sponsorship of this volunteer-managed organization shows your support for:

  • youth athletics and academics for Junior rowers from all DC wards

  • active use of the Anacostia River

  • rowing as a multi-generational sport, life-long fitness, and competition

  • adaptive competition for rowers with disabilities

  • community building in the Capitol Hill neighborhood

Capital seeks sponsors throughout the year. Our events offer sponsors multiple opportunities to engage with local and national audiences. There are many ways to support Capital so let’s talk about what would work best for your organization.

Capital Rowing offers many benefits for our sponsors including featured promotions at regattas and around the boathouse and presence on our website. Contact fundraising@capitalrowing.org for more information.
