WELCOME TO THE
NATIONAL ROWING FOUNDATION

Our mission is to support athletes who pursue excellence in the sport of rowing with the primary goal of promoting the United States' participation in international rowing competitions, provide for the preservation of rowing history, and manage the Rowing Hall of Fame.


Since 1966, supporters of the NRF have provided hundreds of grants to our National Team. Join us in support of the athletes representing the USA in the noblest of sports and inspire them to achieve excellence in rowing and in life.

As the USA rowing team journeys to Beijing, we wish them a safe and successful Olympic Games. The National Rowing Foundation has provided a $700,000 grant to assist US rowers in their quest for medals. Click the button below to make a donation and join the NRF team of supporters!
