The Sea Tow Foundation is excited to announce that we won a Power of Associations Gold Award from the American Society of Association Executives (ASAE) for our successful Life Jacket Loaner Program. ASAE’s Power of Associations Awards honors associations that go above and beyond their everyday mission to undertake initiatives that benefit their community, and the world.

The Sea Tow Foundation’s Life Jacket Loaner Program is the largest of its kind in the world, with more than 1,300 stands located across all 50 states, plus Washington, D.C., American Samoa and the Virgin Islands. Established in 2008 to prevent drowning, the Life Jacket Loaner Program features loaner stations that each contain life jackets ranging in size from infant to adult extra-large that boaters can borrow and return free of charge to ensure that they have a safe day on the water.

The ASAE Annual Power of Associations Summit Awards will take place at the National Building Museum in Washington, D.C. on Thursday, September 28, 2023.
