Indigenous Peoples' Day Sail: The Essence of WATER

bridges healthcare gaps through transformative on-water experiences designed to nurture whole-person healing. Our program harnesses "blue space medicine"—water's natural healing properites—through monthly sailing tours departing from Baltimore's historic harbor sites.

An unexpected encounter with sailing in 2018 charted a new course for the founder's healing journey. Sailing didn't just offer temporary respite; it fundamentally transformed her understanding of what was possible while navigating daily dialysis treatments.

In 2024 we began bringing diverse populations onto the water, encouraging self-efficacy and empowering participants to leave their stress on shore, reconnect with nature, and practice mindfulness through the healing art of sailing. To date we have happily gifted 31 FREE excursions to the kidney care community, our goal this year is 40! Make waves with us by purchasing a ticket; ALL purchases allow for a person on dialysis treatment to sail for FREE.

See you on the water!
