Row for the Cure

Background Information

In 2007, the Head of the Hooch Regatta elected to follow USRowing's lead in supporting Row for the Cure as its philanthropic endeavor. The Hooch encouraged all participating teams to hold their own Row for the Cure event and offered an online fundraising tool. Atlanta Rowing Club and Saint Andrew Rowing Club adopted Row for the Cure as their local community service project, and the two clubs sponsored the first day-long row-a-thon on the Chattahoochee River. Georgia State and Atlanta Junior Rowing Association joined in 2008 and GA Tech followed in 2009.

Event Information

Komen Atlanta would like to send a huge thank you to Row for the Cure for raising more than $58,000 at the 2012 Row for the Cure! Seventy-five percent of all funds raised at the event stay in the metro Atlanta community to enable women to detect and survive breast cancer.
