Many sincere thanks to our proud sponsors. The delivery of sail training courses to youth on the Great Lakes couldn’t happen without them.

TBI is also grateful for the generous support of the Ontario Trillium Foundation.

For more than 30 years the Naval Officer’s Association of Canada has donated a substantial bursary for the Deep Sea Award.

Canadian Hydrographic Service

The generous contribution of up to 10 charts per year from the Central and Arctic region of the Canadian Hydrographic Service has been imperative to the safety of our brigantines and the teaching of navigational skills to our youth officers.

Despite their refocusing on the arts and entertainment, Harbourfront Centre has continued to help Toronto Brigantine with Brig House and berths for our vessels. Without their generosity we could not continue deliver our program from Toronto Harbour.
