Please contribute generously. We work with kids during and after school to give them a chance to get involved in building and using wooden boats -- something that most inner city youth have never dreamed of. You should see their eyes light up when they realize that it’s a real boat we’re talking about. These kids gain skills and values that serve them throughout their lives. Not only do they learn how to work with wood, they learn that a set of plans and a pile of raw materials can be transformed a thing of beauty and usefulness. They learn that it takes persistence, discipline, teamwork, and careful craftsmanship. After the boat is completed, they have a whole new understanding of what it takes to accomplish something and they have a can-do self-confidence that enables them to take on other challenges. You can quickly and easily make a secure, tax-deductible online contribution to Urban Boatbuilders through Network for Good. Simply click on the Network for Good icon below and follow the instructions.
