A Walk on Water Surf Therapy

Children/Families

Sometimes called AWOW, this nonprofit uses the transformative power of the ocean to grant disabled youth a day of acceptance and empowerment. Everyone is an athlete – able to enjoy the beach and gain some skills on a surfboard. Providing surfing instruction to children with needs from down’s syndrome to blindness, the surf therapy experience is both calming and electrifying. Many kids, for the first time, get to “walk on water” and gain a level of confidence that has a crossover effect. More than 2,000 adults and children with needs have been aided by AWOW since it began its work in 2012. When you donate a vehicle to A Walk on Water-Surf Therapy through Cars2Charities, you play a part in the lives of entire families. The nonprofit’s surf therapy is more than just standing on a board. The whole family is treated to a day of food and drinks, music, yoga, and live music.
