What it says it does

Team Colorado Whitewater Racing Team (TCWR) is a Colorado non-profit corporation that was established in 2012 to foster and improve competitiveness of paddlers in the State of Colorado and neighboring states in national and international whitewater racing and freestyle competitions. TCWR will work directly and with existing whitewater racing clubs, schools and other organizations in Colorado (and perhaps neighboring states) to improve training in competitive whitewater disciplines, hold and support races and events, broaden the reach of whitewater competitions to more youth and young adults, enhance access to hard-to-obtain racing boats, and provide financial and coaching support for racers and freestyle paddlers in national and international competition (including grants to enable travel to elsewhere in the United States, Europe, and other venues for critical competitions).

Governance

This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.
