Our goal is to spread dragon boating to new communities while raising money and awareness for great charities in the process. Paddle for Life is a 501(c)3 non-profit.

Helping Disabled Veterans
Paddle for Life Vancouver is raising money to create a Disabled Veterans Water Sports Program at Vancouver Lake. All of the profits from the event and 100% of the donations go directly to creating a free program that will get disabled vets out on the water in dragon boats, rowing boats and kayaks. The need for equipment is great. New docks and ramps are needed and adaptive equipment must be purchased so that veterans with any disability can participate. The video below is long, but gives you an idea of how water sports heal disabled athletes. The last 2 minutes is the best!
