ADAPTIVE FREEDOM FOUNDATION

Adaptive Freedom Foundation A foundation for inclusion through adaptive water sports and recreation.   Vision Statement:  Adaptive Freedom Foundation puts Smiles on Faces and Hope in Hearts. We do this providing life-changing experiences to individuals with disabilities along with their families and friends through therapeutic water sports and recreation. We help foster confidence and self-esteem by smashing self-limiting beliefs! If we can float a wheelchair on the water, then our only limitation is our imagination! Mission Statement: Adaptive Freedom Foundation a 501(c)3 nonprofit,  believes sports in general raise our quality of life. Sports build confidence, improve our physical fitness, and emotional well-being. We believe everyone should have the opportunity to participate. AFF uses WASUP™  (Wheelchair Adapted Stand Up Paddle) Boards as tools to include the portion of our society that has been limited due to beliefs and a lack of adaptive equipment. These boards secure a wheelchair onto a stand up paddle board and allow everyone the opportunity to get out on the water and enjoy. What was previously thought impossible is now possible! AFF partners with other foundations to share the gift of WASUP™ and the healing powers of the water. We are stronger together. We regularly host “Paddle Days” to introduce our WASUP boards and get people out on the water. Through the use of our WASUP™ Boards we see adaptive stand-up paddle boarding becoming something accessible to everyone. We are working to build teams to compete in Stand Up Paddleboard (SUP) races and spread awareness of the sport. We will start chapters, which will duplicate what we have done in Southern California and Hawaii, to multiply the lasting effects of WASUP™ and adaptive sports with the community locally, nationally and internationally. Through donations, corporate partners, corporate sponsors, and our volunteers we are able to offer this opportunity free of charge. We are changing one life at a time as we paddle through doors that they may have felt were previously closed to them!
