Providing A Unique Sailing Experience For Children And Adults With Special Needs
Home
The Sailing Angels Foundation offers free sailing excursions on a daily basis for education, respite and recreational therapy. Originally serving individuals with cognitive challenges, physical challenges and life threatening illnesses, we have since expanded our reach to include those suffering from severe traumatic experiences and socially challenged children. These guests include “at risk” children, military veterans, first responders, families of the incarcerated, bereaved families and those recovering from domestic violence. Families and caretakers are always welcome on these trips. Our mission is to bring peace, healing and happiness to the individual and their families. The program is often transformational to the individuals and their families. We create priceless memories, one sail at a time!
The Sailing Angels Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable organization, based in the Greater Houston area.

Welcome Big Sister, Tameka! It is always a joy to host BBBS and today, we sailed with Tameka and her Littles: Trinity & Tera. Both girls were a great help hoisting the sails. And then all three took turns at the helm and each did extremely well. What another fun time sailing in the bay! Many thanks to Capt. Dave and his able crew, Elaine. ... See MoreSee Less
Recently we enjoyed cruising with both Military and Big Brothers Big Sisters. Jamie, we thank you for your service and kudos to Altamese for your commitment as Chloe’s Big Sister. Although our winds were low, Jamie and Hunter had a good time as did Altamese and Chloe, whose biggest thrill was doing 360’s while at the helm! Special thanks to our Capt. Frank and his able crew, Elaine. ... See MoreSee Less

Dave and his able crew: June & Fred. ... See MoreSee Less
