Join BCRF as it lays the foundation for an endowment to guarantee a better future for NU Crew and its members. Through collaboration with representatives from the team, BCRF structured a capital campaign that will best meet the long range goals of the team.

The 25th anniversary capital campaign will aim to earn $50,000 by December 31, 2005 and establish a long term endowment of $200,000 by December 31, 2010.

The Derrick Grava Challenge: As an incentive, from now until December 31st, every dollar that is donated to Northwestern Crew will be matched by it’s founder, Derrick Grava, for up to $25,000! That means every dollar you give to the team through BCRF, is worth $2 until December 31st!

This money will be used to create an Alumni Endowment which will provide for two of the team’s greatest needs:

• the continuity of our coaches by increasing coaching salaries
• the possibility of buying into a boathouse in the future

You may visit the Giving Opportunities Section for information on how to contribute.

If you have lost touch with the team and would like to see what the team and BCRF have been up to, please contact any of the BCRF directors; whether that’s the President of BCRF, the Founder of the team or someone you rowed with, we will be happy to help you reconnect with the team.
