About Planned Giving

Every Kid Deserves a Team—Now and for Generations to Come.

By including the George Pocock Rowing Foundation in your will or estate plans, you ensure that every young person has the chance to experience the life-changing sport of rowing for generations to come.

Your legacy gift helps us break down financial, cultural, and systemic barriers—building a more inclusive rowing community where all kids can find their team, grow their confidence, and thrive in life.

WHY PLANNED GIVING MATTERS
Your support today changes lives now. A legacy gift ensures that impact continues long into the future.

Through programs like Camp Lucy, ERG ED®, and Athlete Support & Retention, young people across the Pacific Northwest are gaining access to safe spaces, trusted mentors, and the confidence that comes from being part of a team.

A planned gift means:

  • More scholarships for kids who can’t afford to row.

  • More free summer camps that introduce girls to rowing and belonging.

  • More schools reached through ERG ED®, sparking a lifelong love of movement.

  • More youth rowers who stay in the sport because they feel seen, supported, and valued.

WAYS TO GIVE
Planned gifts can be simple to set up and flexible for your unique circumstances:

  • Bequests in your will or trust: A straightforward way to leave a percentage of your estate or a specific amount to the GPRF.

  • Beneficiary designation: Add the GPRF as a beneficiary to your retirement account, life insurance policy, or bank account—often with just a few forms.

  • Other options: Charitable gift annuities, trusts, and more—our team can help you explore the best fit.

When you make a legacy gift, you become part of a community of changemakers who believe every kid deserves a team.
