For kids with cancer or other serious illnesses
Valiant Voyages operates an educational, marine/sailing program for children with cancer or other serious illnesses, that takes them away from treatment centers and out on the water where they can sail, learn about marine life, and have fun with their families.
INTRODUCTION OF US
MEET OUR Voyagers
Children with cancer, or other serious illnesses, are typically not treated as “normal” by their doctors and parents; perhaps rightfully so. Their friends and fellow students may handle them with kid gloves knowing they are faced with a potentially life-threatening disease.
- Dedicated time with family
- Get away from medical regimens
- Opportunity to enjoy ocean environment
- Fun for all on board
- 13 Years in Operation
OUR TESTIMONIALS
I want to thank you again for arranging the Argia sailboat ride in Mystic a few weeks ago. Alexander and Nathaniel had a great time, and you are doing a really awesome thing by setting up Valiant Voyages. It was a beautiful day and a nice break for all of us. I hope you are able to continue helping other families and kids with cancer because it does make a difference!
You have no idea how much this meant to our family. In 2017 my son was diagnosed with autism and shortly after we discovered he was being abused/mistreated by the public preschool we had him enrolled. Then in 2018, while we were still battling with the school, our daughter Elia was diagnosed with leukemia at two years of age and a new hell began. She endured 2.5 years of intense treatment and rang the bell in 2020 just as the pandemic was beginning. Finally, out of our bubble, we were thrilled to have the kids experience the wonderful things the world offers. ...

I just wanted to send a note over to you for one of the best days I’ve had in years! Yesterday was a beautiful day on the water watching dolphins, butterflies, pelicans, and so much more! As a single mother with two children with major health issues ( one a recent brain cancer survivor ) I don’t have many opportunities for peaceful moments or just time for me. You made that happen for me! I was diagnosed with PTSD last year after my son’s cancer treatments. My anxiety is a constant battle. Thank you for giving me such peace on a magical sailing trip. It meant the world to someone like me who does everything for everyone else. This allowed me to take some time for me for once! I am so grateful!

Words can’t express the gratitude we have for the wonderful opportunity we were blessed with sailing with you! My entire family enjoyed the magical day sailing and swimming with you. Thank you for allowing us to kick off our shoes and unwind. You allowed our entire family to relax and recharge with beautiful Charleston as our backdrop! Often times I feel as parents we don’t get the opportunity to fully relax and unwind, you gave that to us!Thank you for your kindness and hospitality! This was an experience we will never forget. Many thanks
