Events
Fundraising events like the Mossy Creek Invitational are the best opportunity to see firsthand the camaraderie and connectedness at the heart of Project Healing Waters’ success, the healing power of nature and time on the water alongside kindred spirits, and to raise both funds and awareness to continue the mission. Whether you join in at a fundraising event near you or help us to develop a new one, these events are critical to the healing journeys of our Veterans and to the continued success of our programs.
