As you may know, the Ajax Cafe and the Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding have been cornerstones of our community for over 36 years. The future of the Ajax Cafe has been at risk, but by working together the two organizations have developed a mutually beneficial plan that resolves septic issues and provides a long-term lease option for the Ajax while connecting the upper and lower parts of the Boat School into one contiguous campus. The Boat School has an accepted offer on the Ajax property and is raising funds to cover the cost of the purchase. We have raised over $155,000 of the required $375,000 in tax-deductible donations and we need your help today to reach the finish line.
 

 
This is the community dreaming – and all of us grabbing an oar.

You can help “Save the Ajax Cafe, Grow the Boat School” by making a tax-deductible donation to the Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding to support the purchase of the property.

(On the donation page, please choose ‘Ajax Campaign’
in the drop down menu to specify this particular fund.)
