Compass Project

Compass Project is a youth development organization that offers year-round programs that use boat building to engage hard-to-reach kids. Compass Project partners with schools, community organizations, and volunteer mentors to provide unique and empowering experiences to over 200 youths a year. Compass Project programs give young people the opportunity to work with their hands and minds in a supportive yet challenging environment. Students learn and apply skills relating to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM).

Compass Project organizes an annual, community Boat Building Festival each July to raise funds to support our youth boat building programs. Contact us to learn more about how you can: sign up for our Boat Building Festival, volunteer, or commission or buy a boat.
