STRENGTH COMES FROM MOVEMENT AND COMMUNITY.
Joining ROW means becoming part of a vibrant community of empowered women who lift each other up and stand strong together. Whether you're navigating treatment or simply seeking a place to connect, our team is here for you—ready to listen, support, and celebrate every step of your journey.
SUPPORT ONE MORE WOMAN.
HELP US MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
Every donation helps bring another woman closer to reclaiming her body, finding strength through community, and staying resilient against breast cancer. By joining the Ripple Effect or making a one-time donation, you help women embrace their new normal and thrive with the support of an inspiring network of survivors.
STRONG TOGETHER: THE POWER OF TEAMWORK
At Recovery on Water, we believe in the transformative power of sport and the strength of teamwork. Whether you are still in treatment or well along the path of survivorship, ROW welcomes all women and non-binary individuals with a breast cancer diagnosis. As shared by one of our members: “I had never competed or been on a sports team before. Joining ROW boosted my confidence in my athletic ability and showed me that I’m capable of tackling hard or new challenges.”
ELEVATE YOUR BRAND
WITH PHILANTHROPY
Rowing transforms lives, but it’s a costly endeavor. By sponsoring our year-round programs for women with breast cancer, you’re not just funding a sport—you’re empowering recovery and building community. Our success relies on the commitment of generous supporters like you, from both large corporations and local businesses. Help us give these brave women a powerful new chapter.
