Boston Whaler Delivers School Supplies by Boat in Annual ‘Boatload of School Supplies’ Drive

Boston Whaler employees once again took to the water to deliver essential school supplies, marking the 14th consecutive year of the company’s ‘Boatload of School Supplies’ drive. Employees from Boston Whaler’s Edgewater and Flagler, Florida facilities transported school kits by Boston Whaler 150 Montauk, ensuring that over 1,000 students received the materials they needed to start the school year successfully.

This annual initiative, created to support local elementary students and teachers, provides essential learning materials, including:

• Spiral notebooks
• Crayons and pencils
• Erasers and glue sticks
• Scissors and snacks

Expanding Community Support

New in 2024, Boston Whaler expanded its outreach to include seven local elementary and high schools, broadening its impact across Florida’s central east coast.

“We are so fortunate to have wonderful educators in our community, and this annual event is a great opportunity for our employees to come together to show gratitude for our local teachers, principals, and school staff,” said Lenn Scholz, President of Boston Whaler. “As a company, we are committed to giving back to the communities where we live and work, and we feel privileged to support local education with initiatives like Boatload of School Supplies.”
