CHARITIES

The City of Clearwater would not be as flourished without the help of the entire community. Organizations, businesses and the people of Clearwater come together in order to give back.

We understand that those with kind hearts and simple demands should not be affected in these hard economic times. All of these Charities have a common focus of connecting our community to our waters, enabling children and adults alike to enjoy the paradise in which we live.

The success of these events with the support of businesses and individuals throughout the community helped provide funding for the following charities:

SAILABILITY TAMPA BAY

We are a group of dedicated volunteers who envisioned and implemented an opportunity within our community to bring the sport of sailing to those individuals who were physically challenged, so they could partake in this fun activity. Sailability Greater Tampa Bay is a 501(c)3 organization.

Since our inception, we have been able to have a positive impact on many individuals. Our program has graduated many sailors who are mentally or physically challenged, as well as able bodied children, adults, and seniors. Some of the physically challenged individuals we’ve been proud to serve include quadriplegics, paraplegics, amputees, stroke survivors, and those with neurological impairments such as cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, and multiple sclerosis.

We are very proud and appreciative that all of Sailability’s accomplishments have been made possible because of our extremely dedicated volunteer staff.

Our Mission

Sailability Greater Tampa Bay’s mission is to provide affordable, accessible, sailing activities and education to children and adults of all abilities, focusing on community integration to improve the quality of life for all involved.
