Rehabilitating Our Heroes & Our Oceans
Join us in our efforts to provide our wounded warriors a new mission to help save our oceans.
Who We Are - Hero Divers
Our Vision
Our vision is to help our physically and mentally disabled military and first responder heroes rehabilitate from service related injuries and join a new mission to save our oceans.
Our Approach
At Hero Divers, we understand the physical injuries our heroes often experience are accompanied by a loss of sense of purpose. The rewards gained through the successful completion of missions to keep our great country free, can be substituted for the noble mission of protecting our oceans. The weightlessness of diving can be an advantage to those seeking to overcome their disabilities as the gravitational challenges of life on land can be removed in many cases while diving. The sense of purpose in assisting an ocean clean-up or other environmental causes can be equally rewarding to our members as the missions they conducted in their previous lives. The tranquility of diving can sooth the mental wounds many of our heroes face as they adjust to life post-injury.
Our Impact
Our efforts at Hero Divers serve two purposes, both with tremendous social value. The first is to help our heroes heal emotionally and physically by placing them in an environment that values and needs their contributions and "can do" spirit. The other is to help our oceans around the world recover from the neglect caused by human interaction over the past century. The former servicemembers and first responders we serve through this program are trained to become dive instructors and small business owners with the intention of assisting them in opening their own dive shops upon completion of our program to further grow the cadre of volunteers needed to improve our oceans' health. In this respect our program gives them a mission for life. They can continue to serve as they eventually expand the reach of this advocacy network across the globe.
