RowLA is a non-profit organization dedicated to making rowing available to public school students, and especially first-generation students, whose families could not afford the traditional rowing clubs in Los Angeles. By offering rowing training, along with college counseling and academic support, RowLA’s mission is to prepare students for college recruitment, admission to colleges, and access to financial aid opportunities. RowLA has proven results after 10+ years of working with thousands of high school and middle school athletes in Los Angeles. An impressive 99% of our graduates go on to college, 82% graduates with college scholarships, and 62% are first generation college students.

Make our athlete's dreams come true by spreading the holiday cheer!
