How to Donate

For more than 50 years, members of the Northeast Harbor Fleet have encouraged and supported a summer program that teaches youngsters to sail. Students from the sailing program have achieved success at all levels of sailing both within the area and internationally. Thanks to the generosity of those who value the qualities of self reliance, responsibility, teamwork and sportsmanship that sailing can provide, the education continues at the Northeast Harbor Sailing School.

The Northeast Harbor Sailing School is a 501(c)3 non-profit corporation dedicated to educating members of the MDI community in sailing and boating safety. Over 200 students, ages 6 – 18, participate in the summer program each year. Scholarships are available to those with a financial need and a special program for year-round residents offers weekly sailing lessons at no charge.

To continue this excellent education, the Northeast Harbor Sailing School relies on contributions from Fleet members, parents, grandparents, and friends. Weekly tuition for sailing classes covers many of our expenses, but not all. In addition to the cooperation and generous support of the Northeast Harbor Fleet, the Sailing School relies heavily on the support of the summer community we serve to maintain operations, provide high quality staff and balance the School's budget.
