PRESS CHRISTMAS FOR ALL: 'When life gets flipped upside down, you have to learn how to flip it back up'
As part of the annual Press Christmas for All campaign, we share with readers the stories of those who have received help from the program. This is one of them. Press Christmas for All team members asked our referring partners if they knew any clients whose children could benefit from an adventure that would build confidence and make for an exciting outdoor excursion. Dogsmile Adventures, a therapeutic sailing nonprofit, answered the call for that experience, treating six children ages 10-16 to five days of sailing camp. The children were identified based on the needs of their families and the efforts their loved ones were making to move forward past their hardships and trauma.
