Our Sponsors & Supporters

While all our participants relish the miles slipping under their boats on the Darling and Mighty Murray, they also gain great satisfaction from the knowledge that their fundraising efforts help the RFDS to provide an essential service to rural and outback Australia.

Participating teams have developed all sorts of inventive ways to raise funds, but probably the most effective is securing corporate sponsorship for the event.

Sponsors/supporters have been drawn from the employers of team members, from businesses local to participating rowing clubs and even from rowers themselves who manage businesses and include the RFDS in their corporate sponsorship schedule. 

Naming rights are available to sponsoring organisatons.

The Flying Doctor Rowathon Committee expresses its sincere appreciation of the support of our sponsors and encourages all participants to seek out sponsorship opportunities.

We wish to acknowledge the wonderful support from the Wentworth Shire Council for their generous cash donations. This significant support helps the committee to maximise the contribution the event makes to the RFDS.

We also acknowledge the support of the following businesses that donate products that are sold to rowers and supporters, or auctioned, on the Rowathon day to raise funds for the RFDS.
