Abreast In A Boat Society has an established corporate sponsorship program that has been running for many years.

AIAB is dedicated to raising breast cancer awareness and conveying a message of hope and encouragement to those individuals (and their loved ones) going through treatment. We demonstrate that life after breast cancer can be a full and active one and our influence has spread worldwide since 1996.

Sponsors play an absolutely essential role in our non-profit organization. With the exception of one part time administration position, all AIAB Society roles are performed by our enthusiastic members to help keep costs down. Even so, the costs associated with dragon boating, racing, outreach and running the AIAB Society are $500+ per member per year. We are totally reliant on the generous support of our sponsors and supporters to keep membership fees affordable, to keep up our outreach, and to ensure that no one is left on shore.

“As a 30 year employee of Scotiabank, I am proud to be the sponsoring ambassador for Abreast In A Boat, an organization that Scotiabank has sponsored for the past 15 years. Abreast In A Boat is near and dear to my heart having lost my own Mother to breast cancer and a Sister who is now a 7-year survivor.

"This group of women have found a unique and powerful way of promoting a very worthy message: there IS life after breast cancer and are truly an inspiration for ALL Mothers, Sisters, and Daughters. Scotiabank is very proud to be associated with such a strong group of women who on a regular basis show us the importance of perseverance, dedication, and the power of teamwork!”

-Lynne Weber, District Banking Manager, Scotiabank.
