Goal: One in five Americans
struggle with a lifelong disability and nearly two million men and women
have served our country in Iraq and Afghanistan, and are coming home
looking for ways to feel whole again and to fit back in to 'normal' life.
Whether they are an amputee, blind, suffer from PTSD, or have
quadriplegia. Whether they served in WWII, Korea, Vietnam, the Gulf war,
Iraq or Afghanistan. Whether they are a child of Autism, or a young woman
who has lost a limb to Cancer, AmpSurf offers a unique program to bring
the healing power of the ocean and adaptive surfing together for an
experience that is both mentally and physically one of the best forms of
rehabilitation on the planet. Our goal is simple, we want to help our
disabled veterans, adults & children focus on their abilities not their
disabilities. To do this we strive to Promote, Inspire, Educate and
Rehabilitate these great Americans and the public by providing a quality
program and the opportunity for the participants and volunteers to come
together and feel the joy & healing of the ocean and surfing. For 8 years
AmpSurf has been providing our Learn to Surf Clinics and we have served
hundreds of our disabled veterans, adults and children who probably never
would have had this experience if it hadn’t been for our program.
