Challenges Foundation

The Challenges Foundation provides scuba diving training, equipment, and transport for physically challenged people. This proposal is an appeal for funds to specifically provide training and transport for those who have served in the Afghanistan and Iraq wars, so that these men and women can be introduced to an activity where even the physically "abled" can feel challenged. Ultimately, the effect of the underwater experience is to instill feelings of self-confidence, empowerment, and control in its participants.
