About Raider Sailing Foundation
Run by volunteer leadership and captains, Raider Sailing is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides fully funded trips to veterans onboard a sailing vessel – where the group will learn sailing and boat fundamentals. The trips place participants back in a team environment where their individual skills are needed.

After the trips, participants who have found a passion for sailing will be matched with sailing opportunities and captains so that they can continue learning and participating in the sport of sailing.
