01What it does

What Disabled Sailing Association of British Columbia does

Ongoing programs

Adaptive Sailing Association of BC delivered its programs in 2024 thanks to the dedicated crew of staff and volunteers who worked together to help ASABC create a healthy safe fun and exciting time for persons with disabilities. Throughout our summer sailing season we delivered 682 sessions for 230 participants. Our race club consisting of 5 competitive sailors logged two training sessions throughout the summer months and participated in regattas during the summer months including the Mobility Cup. Finally ASABC presented three 'Kids Days'. A focus on youth allowed 30 young sailors to get out on the water in 2024.

As stated on its FY2024 T3010.

The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

Funder regions come from each funder’s own filing. C$152k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 regions is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024 is still being filed and is shown unshaded; it does not move any figure on this page.
