Please consider sponsoring Sail MV
One Vineyard, One Sea, One Sail MV!
Remember when you played with plastic boats on the beach and dreamed of sailing away over the horizon? Sail Martha’s Vineyard was founded in 1992 to help young islanders realize those dreams. Each year we teach around 400 kids how to pilot their own boats around Lagoon Pond. Sail MV’s Maritime Studies program at MVRHS helps students step into maritime careers, and the MVRHS sailing team has grown into a New England power on the water.
For adults, the Sail MV Rowing Club provides year-round rowing opportunities, and Sail MV’s Winter Lectures. bring an opportunity to learn and dine with friends of Sail MV. We have a small, dedicated staff that works year-round behind the scenes and we hire an additional 10-15 staff to teach our summer programs, in which we provide over $160,000 worth of scholarships every year so that Island kids can access our program for free. We couldn’t do it without you!
