Community Impact
Supporting our communities through giving and a spirit of service has been a cornerstone of Crescent Towing since we opened our doors in 1942. Our employees dedicate hundreds of their hours every year to the advancement of our neighborhoods. The Company supports a variety of nonprofit associations including educational, religious, social advocacy, civic, and medical, organizations. Below are just a few of the community partners that Crescent Towing teams with to benefit our neighborhoods, cities, and the maritime industry.
Community Partners
Savannah Smiles
Savannah Smiles is a non-profit organization that provides counseling and financial support to families who experience the loss of a child. During this time of unimaginable tragedy, Savannah Smiles assist families with final burial expenses, costs that are often unplanned for. In addition to supporting families after the loss of a child, Savannah Smiles prepares and delivers Thanksgiving food baskets to families nominated by local churches and charities, and provides toys to children who are in the hospital during the Christmas holidays.
We Work the Waterways
We Work the Waterways is a national nonprofit education organization that introduces students to the maritime, shipping, and logistics industries through hands-on exploration, classroom-based learning, and direct engagement with professionals. Crescent Towing sponsors and hosts We Work the Waterways events throughout the year including the hosting of a Crescent Towing field trip day for local high schools in which students are able to tour tugboats, the Crescent Towing fleet, and the port of New Orleans fire and rescue boat.
