SAILING FOUNDATION
RAIDER SAILING FOUNDATION
A 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization introducing teams of combat veterans to the challenging and rewarding world of sailing.
What We Do
Run by volunteer leadership and captains, Raider Sailing is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides fully funded trips to veterans onboard a sailing vessel – where the group will learn sailing and boat fundamentals. The trips will place participants back in a team environment where their individual skills are needed.
After the trips, participants who have found a passion for sailing will be matched with sailing opportunities and captains so that they can continue learning and participating in the sport of sailing. Formal sailing education scholarships will be available.
Our Mission
To empower combat veterans through transformative experiences that rekindle the camaraderie and purpose found in close-knit teams. Through dynamic sailing adventures, we facilitate the reintegration of teams of veterans into a supportive community.
Our mission extends beyond recreation, as we partner veterans with experienced sailing captains to elevate the sport of sailing and build an environment of enduring connections and personal growth.
