Heroes on the Water - Kansas Chapter

Heroes on the Water - Kansas Chapter Heroes on the Water helps wounded warriors relax, rehabilitate, and reintegrate through kayak fishing and the outdoors.

Heroes on the Water helps injured service members with their physical and mental recovery using the therapeutic qualities of fishing from kayaks. Every HOW event across the country brings together wounded military personnel for guided kayak fishing excursions. Participants are taught kayaking and kayak fishing basics, and sometimes adaptive kayaks and paddling equipment are required. Warriors hang

out with other kayak anglers, connect with colleagues and most of all leave behind stresses and memories for several hours communing with nature. With chapters across the country, we have teams of volunteers that arrange first-rate, absolutely free kayak fishing trips for the men and women of all branches of service. Their commitment to giving back to the men and women who have given so much makes it possible to deliver this program nationwide in local areas. Consider how you might be able to assist in helping more wounded veterans to experience kayak fishing and the outdoors through the HOW program.

Welcome to all Veterans, First Responders, and their families.

On Purple Heart Day, Heroes on the Water honors the men and women who were wounded or killed in service to our country.

The Purple Heart represents sacrifice that cannot be measured only by the medal itself. It carries the weight of what was endured, the families who stood beside those who served and the lasting impact that service can have long after the moment of injury.

Today, we recognize every Purple Heart recipient, remember those who did not return home and honor the courage of the military community they represent.

To the Purple Heart recipients within the Heroes on the Water community and across the country, thank you for your service and sacrifice.
