OUR MISSION: REMOVE EVERY BARRIER

We partner with school districts, recreation centers, community organizations, and neighborhood leaders across Greater Cleveland to ensure that financial status, zip code, or prior exposure never prevents a student from experiencing the water.

Remove Financial Barriers

Through financial aid, Row. Sail. Dream. ensures programs are accessible to participating schools and organizations.

Remove Geographic Barriers

We come to you or provide transportation, location is never a barrier to participation.

Remove Informational Barriers

Many families don't know rowing and sailing are accessible, we're changing that narrative.
