Organizations Supported by ROW Adventures

 

On any one day, more than 27,000 committed individuals representing dozens of nationalities can be found providing assistance to people caught in crises around the world. They are doctors, nurses, logistics experts, administrators, epidemiologists, laboratory technicians, mental health professionals, and others who work together in accordance with Doctors Without Border's guiding principles of humanitarian action and medical ethics.

Alzheimer's Association's mission is to eliminate Alzheimer's disease through the advancement of research; to provide and enhance care and support for all affected; and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health. ROW Adventures holds an annual "Raft to Remember" event to help raise money and awareness for this worthy organization.

Susan G. Komen fought breast cancer with her heart, body and soul. Throughout her diagnosis, treatments, and endless days in the hospital, she spent her time thinking of ways to make life better for other women battling breast cancer instead of worrying about her own situation. Moved by Susan’s compassion for others, Nancy G. Brinker promised her sister that she would do everything in her power to end breast cancer forever. Thus began Susan G. Komen For The Cure. In 2008, ROW Adventures held a "Raft for the Cure-Coeur d'Alene" event in their honor that raised over $5,000.

PJALS (Peace and Justice Action League of Spokane) has been active for 30 years. Since 1975, PJALS has promoted social, political and economic change through community organizing, nonviolence training, volunteer involvement, human rights education and advocacy. PJALS networks with local, regional and national peace and human rights groups to initiate change locally and globally.

Dr. Anne C. Fox-Clarkson, who was an elementary school principal in Coeur d'Alene, ID, founded the Children's Village, Inc. In 1983, Dr. Fox-Clarkson made a promise to a brother and sister that she would build them a home, as they had suffered child abuse. Two parents from her school agreed to help her, Carol Rankin and Kathy Curran. With the wonderful support of many volunteers and businesses, the 15 acres were purchased and two homes were built. The Mission of the Children's Village is to care for, advocate and provide a safe, loving, nurturing and healing home for children. Those children, ages birth to age 18, who have been abused, neglected, homeless, or are in severe family crisis may be served.
The mission of the Friends of the Centennial Trail is "To assist in the maintenance and development of the Spokane Centennial Trail and its adjacent parklands." ROW Adventures actively supports this mission and is proud to be a Friend of the Centennial Trail.
