<div>EBRC is excited to share that Oakland United Rowers (OUR) - formerly known as Oakland Tech Rowing - has received a $10,000 grant award from the Olympic Club Foundation toward the purchase of equipment that will strengthen the college recruiting potential of OUR students. The Olympic Club Foundation is a local 501c3 whose mission is to financially support programs that share the belief that participation in organized athletics enriches young lives and develops future community leaders.

<div>OUR Coaches and combined 3-time Olympians Erin Cafaro and Ann Strayer have spent extensive time researching our rowers’ college recruiting potential and found that because we are generally a smaller rowing club, the best way for our student-athletes to be noticed by potential college rowing recruiters is to showcase our athletes in smaller boats. This means entering our athletes in races of smaller boats: quads, doubles and singles. To make this possible we need the necessary equipment for OUR.

<div>We are grateful for the generous investment in OUR by the Olympic Club, and we ask you to join us in reaching our goal to raise the remaining $31,000 by February 15 to purchase small rowing shells (double/pair and quad/four). With this money, we will be able to fully purchase the equipment necessary to put OUR athletes in the best possible position to be recruited to college programs.
