Reliable fuel delivery helps keep maritime students learning—and public safety crews on the water.
At Christensen, we believe strong partnerships are built on more than products and deliveries. They are built on trust, communication, shared values, and a commitment to serving the communities around us.
That is why our partnership with the Youth Marine Foundation is one we are proud to spotlight.

Located on the Foss Waterway, the Youth Marine Foundation has been serving the Tacoma community for more than a century. At 103 years old, it is the oldest organization on the waterway, using its 110-foot vessel, the Doolin-Rogers, as a floating classroom where students gain hands-on maritime experience.
For Dan Moulton, Business Operations Manager for the Youth Marine Foundation, the organization’s impact goes far beyond technical training.
That focus on teamwork, service, and community connection is what makes the partnership between Christensen and the Youth Marine Foundation such a natural fit.
The Youth Marine Foundation’s fuel dock plays an important role in supporting its programs. Every dollar that comes through the dock is funneled directly back into the kids, helping support maritime skills development and hands-on learning opportunities.
The dock also serves government agencies and public safety crews who rely on dependable fueling to get back on the water quickly and safely. For these teams, reliable service is not just convenient—it is critical.
Before partnering with Christensen, the Youth Marine Foundation faced recurring challenges with late deliveries, incorrect invoicing, and inconsistent communication. Those issues created unnecessary stress for the organization and the customers depending on them.
When Moulton first connected with Christensen, he met with local representative Samara. From the start, the experience felt different.
“I instantly felt like part of a family,” Moulton said. “The level of communication and the quality of our conversations were far better than anything else I had ever experienced.”
That relationship-driven approach reflects Christensen’s commitment to customer service, reliability, and modern technology—the foundational pillars of how we do business every day.
For the Youth Marine Foundation, Christensen’s online portal has become a major advantage. The platform allows Moulton to monitor tanks, place orders, review invoices, and track deliveries in one easy-to-use system.
“I absolutely love their online portal—it’s an absolute game-changer,” he said. “I can seamlessly monitor my tanks, place orders whenever I want, review invoicing, and track our deliveries.”
For Christensen, partnerships like this are about more than delivering fuel. They are about helping customers operate with confidence, supporting organizations that strengthen their communities, and doing exactly what we say we are going to do.
The Youth Marine Foundation is developing the next generation of maritime professionals while serving the public agencies that keep local waterways safe. Christensen is proud to support that mission with reliable service, clear communication, and tools that help make daily operations easier.
