Row for the Cure
Usually near the end of August, we host a day-long
rowing event on the Cuyahoga River, collecting pledges and
asking all local rowers to make a donation to row that day.
Monies raised directly benefit the Northern Ohio Breast Cancer
Coalition Fund, which provides education, advocacy and aid
to breast cancer survivors and patients through research,
access, influence, and financial assistance.
In the three years the CRF has held this event, our generous
sponsors and local rowers have donated over $45,000 to fight
breast cancer and assist survivors. A women's sculling double
was named in Karen's memory.
