Organizing Efforts, Creating Change, Making an Impact

How It Feels

Picture a child with cancer smiling for the first time since diagnosis or a veteran with PTSD relaxing and enjoying the camaraderie of fellow veterans and loving civilians. They leave their worries on the dock as they head out on local waters for a few hours of relaxation and sunshine.

That’s what happens during our free marine-related programs. People are transported away from their challenges and cares. They smile. They laugh. They make lifelong memories and new friendships, building a greater sense of community.

You Make A Difference

Our therapeutic experiences are transformative for people facing life’s toughest challenges. They often come away with a renewed zest for living, sense of self-worth, accomplishment and independence.

This effect impacts everyone involved, including the loved ones of participants.
