Together We Can Make Boating Better On GivingTuesday

Giving Tuesday

Nov 23, 2023

GivingTuesday was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good. Over the past 10 years, this idea has grown into a year-round global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.

By making a charitable donation to Canadian Power and Sail Squadrons on November 28th you are supporting the ongoing development and delivery of outstanding boating education and safety programs for all recreational boaters in Canada.

This year, we are asking for your help on November 28th in recognition of GivingTuesday.
