ASK is an incorporated not-for-profit organization which depends on funding from individuals, corporations and government agencies to provide the funding enabling ASK to offer its recreational sailing programs to Kingston's community of disabled persons. ASK's 2004 capital campaign target is to raise $60,000 required to construct a covered structure from which to shield participants from the elements during on shore teaching, purchase a 2nd Martin 16 specialized sailboat (bringing the overall fleet to 2 Martins and 2 Access dinghy) and allow for a required $15,000 in operating funds to be available to pay staff, purchase supplies, perform boat maintenance etc.. Your contribution will assist ASK in bringing the thrill and freedom of sailing to persons with a disability.
