Corporate & Foundaton Giving

💼 Corporate Giving, Sponsorships & Foundations

Align your brand—or your mission—with community, education, and the spirit of the sea.

Our Corporate Giving Program and Foundation Partnerships offer meaningful ways to support youth access, maritime education, and environmental stewardship on Willapa Bay. Whether you're a local business, a regional brand, or a philanthropic foundation, your support helps create transformational experiences in one of the 120 poorest counties in the United States.

🌟 Ways to Partner

• Program Sponsorships – Fund a season of sailing lessons, sponsor a regatta, or support our high school boat-building program

• Fleet Sponsorships – Underwrite the maintenance or acquisition of new boats, trailers, or safety gear

• Event Sponsorships – Gain visibility and goodwill by sponsoring one of our community events or fundraisers

• Matching Gift Programs – Double the impact of your employees’ donations

• In-Kind Donations – Donate marine equipment, tools, fuel, printing, signage, or food & beverages for events

🏛 Foundation Support

We actively partner with private, family, and community foundations aligned with youth development, STEM education, rural enrichment, and environmental learning. Grants from foundations allow us to:

• Expand free summer sailing programs

• Equip our marine shop class with materials and tools

• Provide transportation for underserved youth

• Invest in safety equipment, instructor training, and program development

• Scale environmental initiatives like our “Stewards of the Bay” program in partnership with Willapa Wild

We welcome general operating support, program-specific grants, and capacity-building initiatives.
