IJS is a non-profit organization run by a volunteer board of directors. Contributions to IJS are tax-deductible. Our dedicated supporters have enabled us to maintain the quality of IJS programs. For those of you who have not participated in the past, we encourage you to become involved: there are few institutions that do so much for your children.

The fees that we charge for sailing classes are only intended to cover general operating expenses. In order to maintain our fleet of boats and floating docks, and provide scholarships to deserving families we depend on generous patrons like you.

Any donations of boats, sails, sailing books, etc. would be greatly appreciated. Please feel free to call any IJS board member.
