Rowing is the ultimate team sport. Every athlete plays a role in moving the boat forward. Coaches, parents and supporters are an important part of the team, too.

The RowRaiser is our biggest fundraiser of the year, and in 2026 our goal is to raise $100,000. Every gift counts, and with your help, we can meet and exceed our goal.

SICR is an entirely self-funded organization, and we depend heavily on donations to offset equipment purchases and maintenance, storage and rental fees, team travel, club operations and scholarship costs. The rowers' dues cover only a portion of the costs necessary for team operations, and the rest of the funds needed to run the program must be raised through fundraisers like the RowRaiser.

Any contribution, no matter the size, is greatly appreciated. As SICR is a 501(c)(3) organization, your donation amount is tax deductible to the extent allowed by law.

To pay by check, please make it payable to Saint Ignatius Chicago Rowing. Please email our team treasurer, Dina Patel, at treasurer@saintignatiuschicagorowing.org to request her address.

SICR has impacted hundreds of student-athletes for over 25 years, and as a community, we come together to support the team and help future generations of rowers. Thank you for your support!
