Fundraising Events

We did it! Environmental Traveling Companions’ (ETC) 50^th Anniversary Make-a-Ripple Gala, held on May 7, 2023, was a grand success!

What an incredible evening celebrating our storied 50-year history and ensuring continued funding for ETC’s accessible and transformational outdoor adventures for people of all abilities and youth from under-resourced backgrounds.

We are thrilled to share that we raised over $450,000, thanks to our generous guests, live auction and event sponsors, and the hard work of our dedicated volunteers and staff!

The annual Sea Trek Regatta and Benefit for ETC is a chance for the Bay Area paddling community to share in a fun and challenging day paddling on the San Francisco Bay. The Regatta is open to people of all abilities, sea kayakers, stand-up paddlers, outriggers, and other paddling crafts.
