Heroes on Waves
Surfing and professional support for combat veterans coping with PTSD
Heroes on Waves is a social venture helping combat veterans coping with post-trauma following their military service and combat. The project combines surfing as an empowering group activity with professional guidance and therapeutic tools, creating a process of release, healing and resilience-building.
Through connection to a supportive community of volunteers and professionals, participants receive personal and group support on the way back to full, healthy functioning. Our goal is to restore to these fighters the confidence, calm and strength to live full, meaningful lives.
The past year
We are a new nonprofit, our first group is due to open in the coming months, and the organization will begin significant activity.
