Fundraising

Shadowfax Racing is a volunteer-based charity and as such, we depend on the generous financial and in-kind donations of various people and organisations,  

​Shadowfax racing spends the money we raise on funding our trainees transport and food costs for the program, as wells as entering races and keeping all the boats and kit up to scratch. In particular all the boats involved in the program are fully coded every three years.   

We fundraise through a combination of private donations, events and grants.

We would like to thank the following individuals for particular donations: 

Dave Rolfe, founder and original owner of Shadowfax.  Dave got us off the ground in 2014, and continues to support the charity with funding of the upkeep of Shadowfax. 

Greg Nasmyth, a fellow sailor and racer has generously supported Shadowfax racing in 2017 securing the charities funding for our 2018 programs and beyond.  ​

Arrowgrass: For donating the funds which enabled Shadowfax Racing to buy its own set of matching team kit! This has, and will continue to keep our trainees warm and dry, through the best of the British weather.

The Annual Black Tie Ball  
​

The charity organises an annual ‘fundraising ball’. Year 1 (2015) raised over £8000, Year 2 (2016) raised over £6000, Year 3 (2017) raised  £12,000, Year 4 (2018) raised £10,000 and last year's ball raised just over £6,000! 
​
In 2019 the ball was once again held at the Royal Thames Yacht Club and had a Speakeasy theme.

​The ever-popular auction was hosted by Dingo with some amazing donated lots, including F1 Paddock tickets, Warren Smith skiing holidays and much more!
