How You Can Help.
Your Donation Makes an Impact.
We are a separate nonprofit from the Rhode Island Yacht Club and rely entirely on generous community support to expand public programming and tuition reimbursements.
Please consider a gift— every donation makes an impact. Here’s how your support helps:
Where most needed — fuels our general programs and lets us respond to urgent needs.
Tuition Reimbursement Program — helps cover course fees for youth to attend boating-related classes, supporting the next generation of safe boaters.
Public Events, Lectures & Classes — supports community seminars, expert speakers, and class materials.
RIYCEF Endowment — builds long-term stability so we can keep teaching, training, and inspiring future generations.
