Give the Gift of Sailing
A message from our new Instructional Committee Chair, Susan Grandpierre
We hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving with family and friends. At East Bay Sailing Foundation (EBSF), we are thankful for the more than 40 BYC members, nonmembers, friends and parents who volunteered to give our students an introduction to the joys and fun of sailing with EBSF’s sailing classes. It takes so many of us to make this program successful. If you’re looking for a wow of a stocking stuffer, sailing lessons could be just the thing. (Registration opens in January.)
In this Holiday season of giving, we hope you will remember EBSF in your plans. Your gifts will help us keep our boats and equipment in safe and tip-top condition. To donate, please follow the steps below.
Donation is easy! Please Venmo us at @EBSFRI , or using Paypal or credit card below.
Mail checks to East Bay Sailing Foundation PO Box 855 Bristol RI 02809.
Thank you for your support of East Bay Sailing Foundation.
And remember … EBSF is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit foundation, so your donation is tax deductible!
With deepest appreciation for your generosity,
Susan Grandpierre
Chair, EBSF Board of Directors
