The Cause
Rowing for more than a record.
This crossing is a personal challenge, but it is also a chance to do real good. Every donation goes directly to the charity, not to the campaign.
Why this cause
[PLACEHOLDER: Charity name]
[PLACEHOLDER: the charity story. Introduce the charity Kimball is rowing for, what it does, and the people it helps. Two or three short paragraphs work best.]
[PLACEHOLDER: why it matters to Kimball. The personal connection. Why this cause, and why now. This is the emotional heart of the page, so tell it in his own voice.]
Ocean rowing has a remarkable track record here. Crews in the World’s Toughest Row have together raised more than $70 million for the causes they care about. Kimball intends to add to that total, one supporter at a time.
[PLACEHOLDER: link the button to the official donation page. The race’s recommended platform is GiveWheel.]

The fundraising goal
[PLACEHOLDER: goal]
[PLACEHOLDER: set a clear, realistic fundraising target and, if you like, show progress toward it. Even a simple number gives donors something concrete to rally behind.]
100% transparent
Your donation is not campaign funding.
The race itself insists on this distinction, and so do we. It matters that you know exactly where your money goes.
Donations → the charity
Money given here goes directly to the cause through the official donation platform. It does not pay for the boat, the entry fee or any campaign cost. Where applicable, Gift Aid lets the charity claim even more.
Sponsorship → the campaign
Getting Kimball to the start line is funded separately, by corporate sponsors who receive brand exposure in return. If that is you, the sponsorship page is the place to start.

You do not have to row an ocean to be part of this. A single gift, multiplied across everyone following along, becomes something significant.
