Your contribution prevents Veteran suicide.
Skeleton Crew Adventures takes veterans and first responders living with post-traumatic stress to sea. Not a cruise. Real sailing, real watches, real weather, on a crew that depends on each other. That's the therapy, and it works because it isn't framed as therapy.
Every trip is free to the sailor. Boats, fuel, food, safety gear, and the coaching that goes with it are covered by people like you. There are no platform fees on our donation page. 100% of what you give goes to the program.
We believe no one should have to say “no” due to financial barriers, so it’s our goal to cover all expenses for our members.

A note on the "contribution to Zeffy" at checkout. Zeffy processes our gifts at no cost to us. Instead, it asks donors for an optional contribution to keep the service free for nonprofits. That amount is pre-filled, but it's entirely up to you. Use the dropdown next to it to change it or set it to $0. It's listed separately on your receipt, and 100% of your actual donation comes to Skeleton Crew Adventures.
