EXMOUTH RNLI received a cheque for �2,000 from the Exeter Province of the Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffaloes (RAOB).
The charitable group was shown around the all-weather lifeboat by deputy coxswain Giles White, who thanked members for the donation.
RAOB secretary David Moore said the group had requested the money was spent locally.
He said: "We chose Exmouth RNLI because they were having a new station and we thought that a little extra would help with other purchase of equipment they might need."
The members raised the cash after organising a host of events, including raffles, darts, skittle matches and pool games.
Auctioning a small RNLI teddy bear raised �400 for the sea safety charity.
Mr Moore said: "The members throughout the world have always supported others with a need.
"With the RNLI in the past, we have purchased two boats for them. "In the West Country we have supported within our province from Lyme Regis down to Exmouth RNLI with a donation.
