> “Our clubs need help supporting youth sailing. If you have old or un-used sails, donate them through your club to raise much needed funding” - Carl Crafoord - Sail Exchange

### How it works 

Sails For Kids is running state based donation drives to collect your un-used sails for the benefit of funding youth sailing programs around the country.Your donated sails will be sold via the *[SailExchange](http://www.sailexchange.com.au/)* network and **60%** of the proceeds will be returned to the club (or its nominee) to assist with funding youth sailing programs and support the future for sailing for our kids.
