It All Begins with You

With your tax-deductible donation, Community Sailing New Orleans can continue to expand opportunities and access for the New Orleans community to experience and enjoy the sport of sailing.

Annual fund contributions generate crucial unrestricted financial support for our students, programs, and operations. With your support, we can do the following:

  • Enhance Program Accessibility: Unrestricted funds allow us to enhance program accessibility by removing financial barriers and make our programs more accessible to those who may otherwise be unable to participate.
  • Maintain Program Quality: By providing resources for staff training and program development, donations ensure that we can continue to deliver high-quality experiences and lessons.
  • Strengthen Organizational Capacity: Unrestricted funds provide the necessary support for operational expenses, such as facility maintenance and administrative costs, allowing us to focus on our core mission of serving our community.
  • Foster Innovation and Adaptation: We can explore new initiatives, pilot programs, and develop partnerships that further our impact and address emerging needs within our community.

Most importantly, your gift allows us to make sailing accessible to everyone in the community. Thank you for investing in Community Sailing New Orleans!
