SPONSORSHIP
Our Program Sponsors are part of a growing group of local business owners and individuals who make it possible for over 2,000 students to sail on PISCATAQUA and learn about local maritime heritage, water quality and marine life in our rivers. Our message continues to emphasize how we all can share stewardship responsibilities to keep our rivers healthy. We are well on our way to having over 100 classes on board PISCATAQUA in 2018. It is our goal to make our award winning education programs accessible to all students regardless of their ability to pay our fee.
Sponsorship comes with benefits! By sponsoring a class on PISCATAQUA your company will get recognition in our annual report, newsletter and on our website. Please view the sponsorship menu below for benefits based upon level.
