Row-A-Thon – Greatest Fundraising Spectacle

It’s Not Too Late to Donate & Support LUM

This past Saturday, the Purdue Rowing Team held their annual “Row-A-Thon” event at the local mall. Each member of the co-ed team rowed at least 30,000 meters in three hours on indoor rowing machines while raising funds for the LUM Good Samaritan Fund.

If you missed Row-A-Thon, you may still make a donations ONLINE (mention “Rowathon” in additional comments section) or by mail to Purdue Crew Club, 355 N. Martin Jischke Dr., West Lafayette, IN 47907. Funds raised will be evenly split between LUM and the Purdue Crew Team. Join us for this charitable event and support the community!

Thanks to Purdue Crew president, Kara Benbow; head coach, Nathan Walker; and the entire rowing team and coaching staff for their continued support of Lafayette Urban Ministry.  Please note: the funds raised from Row-A-Thon will be split 50/50 between LUM and Purdue Crew Team.
