We are deeply grateful to Welch's and New Balance for providing major funding for this project.  In addition, both Welch's and New Balance have generously underwritten our first educational initiative by gifting the educational version of the film (along with teaching materials) to 100 girls' high schools and 100 Girl Scout Councils.

We also wish to thank the following companies for their financial and in-kind support.

Thanks also to our other contributors:  Van Dusen Racing Boats, Gentle Giant Moving Company, and Durham Boat Company. In-kind support was provided by JL Design and Nike. Finally, we wish to acknowledge the many individuals who contributed so generously to this effort, who are not named here as several wished to remain anonymous.
