Diveheart Foundation

DIVEHEART MISSION STATEMENT:

To build confidence and independence in children, adults, and veterans with disabilities using SCUBA diving as a tool.

Founded in the state of Illinois in early 2001, the Diveheart Foundation has grown to a worldwide presence through the dedication of devoted volunteers.

Diveheart’s purpose is to provide and support educational SCUBA diving and snorkeling experience programs for any child, adult, or veteran with a disability to provide both physical and psychological therapeutic value to the individual.

“Through SCUBA diving, the Diveheart Foundation supports and facilitates programs that teach children and adults with disabilities to fly. Thanks to the wonder of the water column, the oceans and lakes of the world become the forgiving weightless environment of outer space, giving perfect buoyancy to a child or adult who would otherwise struggle on land.”

It is the “CAN DO” spirit that Diveheart hopes to instill in all its participants by giving them the confidence and independence that allows them to face their own life challenges and overcome barriers that before might have seemed insurmountable.

    Richard,

    Thank you so much for sharing the Diveheart story with others. We’ve been very blessed this year with incredible exposure in the media. Tons of great videos on the http://www.diveheart.org website. I hope your readers will share these stories with children, adults and veterans of all abilities so that they can “Imagine The Possibilities” in their lives. Thanks again
