Overview

Mission

Community rowing programs

What it reported doing in 2025

Berkshire sculling offers rowing experiences and coaching for people of all ages. We teach and facilitate rowing in singles and team boats, and on ergometers, for health, recreation, and competition. We have helped hundreds of people discover their ability to move a shell (boat) through the water, or rediscover their love of rowing.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Assets have declined or grown slowly and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
