About
We strive to embody the Aggie spirit through hard work, teamwork, and a relentless pursuit of success. We aim to empower and set up UC Davis athletes for success both on and off the water. As a non-profit sports club, our team does not receive funding from the university. This is why fundraisers like these are so important for our team. On November 3rd, our athletes will take turns rowing on ergometers (indoor rowing machines) for 12 consecutive hours for our annual Erg-A-Thon fundraiser.
What I’m Raising Money For
The money we raise from our Erg-A-Thon this year will go towards helping our team fund equipment purchases (such as a new 8+), repairs, and team travel costs.
Why You Should Give
Our team is excited to be on the water, training hard, and looking forward to winning big this year. Like many non-profits and student sports clubs, a large part of our success comes from our supporters. Unfortunately, our rowers’ dues are not enough to cover all the costs needed to keep our competitive club moving forward at full speed. The team must rely on the support of friends, family, and alumni to fund necessary costs, such as regatta and travel fees, equipment repairs and purchases, and our hard-working coaches’ salaries. These costs can range from $45k for a new 8+ boat to $600 for each athlete’s flight to nationals with our goal being to bring as many as 36 athletes. The funds we raise help keep our boats moving and our team winning. With your support, we are able to introduce new women to the wonderful sport of rowing and allow them to compete on a national level regardless of experience.

Happy Erg-A-Thon Day!
Update from Margaret Chen
Today is the day! We are currently live on Instagram (@ucdwrowing)! Head over to see our first three rowers kickstart our 12-hour day at 8 AM. For those of you tuning in to our livestream, we will be doing a Power 10 campaign. A donation of $10 to our venmo (@UCDWCREW) will equate to a rower taking 10 powerful strokes on the erg, and a donation of $20 will equate to a rower taking 20 powerful strokes on the erg. In order to ensure the correct rower is doing a power 10 or 20, please specify in the “What’s this For” section “Power 10 (rower’s name)”. As long as the donation is received before or during the rower’s hour of power, the rower will be able to satisfy this request. Thank you to everyone who has already contributed! Your support means so much to us! We are still 10,000 amount away from our goal of $15,000, and any donation will help us reach it. Any donations that exceed our goal will be used to purchase two new boats and oars. New equipment brings a new sense of excitement to our athletes that encourages us all to keep training hard. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to our team using the link below: https://www.piggybackr.com/users/ucdrowing_fundraising/fundraisers/women-s-rowing-at-uc-davis-2024-december/public Sincerely, Margaret Chen Fundraising Chair UC Davis Women's Crew 232 ARC One Shields Ave, Davis, CA 95616 www.ucdrowing.com | @ucdwrowing

Erg-A-Thon Information
Update from Margaret Chen
Dear Friends, Family, and Alumni, Thank you to everyone who has donated to the Erg-A-Thon so far! Join us this Sunday, November 3rd, on Instagram (@ucdwrowing) as the team takes turns rowing on the rowing machine (also called the erg) for 12 consecutive hours. For those of you tuning in to our livestream, we will be doing a Power 10 campaign. A donation of $10 to our venmo (@UCDWCREW) will equate to a rower taking 10 powerful strokes on the erg, and a donation of $20 will equate to a rower taking 20 powerful strokes on the erg. In order to ensure the correct rower is doing a power 10 or 20, please specify in the “What’s this For” section “Power 10 (rower’s name)”. As long as the donation is received before or during the rower’s hour of power, the rower will be able to satisfy this request. Even when we are unable to make it out on the water, we still train competitively by using the ergs to focus on fitness and technique that will translate to the water. This training helps us become more competitive. However, it is difficult for us to remain competitive without the equipment to do so. As a sports club, we receive limited funding from the university and rely on fundraisers like these to keep our team thriving. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to our team using the link below: https://www.piggybackr.com/users/ucdrowing_fundraising/fundraisers/women-s-rowing-at-uc-davis-2024-december/public This year, money raised from the Erg-A-Thon will go towards food, travel, and equipment repairs. We are also planning to add two new boats, as well as a set of complementary oars to our boathouse this year. Some of our alumni have already donated a generous amount to help us buy these items, but we still need your assistance to reach this goal! Any funds raised beyond our operational needs of $13,000 will be allocated towards purchasing the new boats and oars. Any amount will help support an awesome program that allows collegiate women to build community and succeed on and off the water! If you’re not in a position to donate, we would greatly appreciate your help in spreading the word about our fundraiser to anyone who might be interested in contributing.Thank you for all of your support!
