We’ve Made It a Quarter Way Around the Globe! Will You Join Our Efforts?
A Tribute to Seafarers Around the World:
Walk, Jog, Cycle and Swim to Honor Mariners and Circumnavigate the Globe
Heroes at Sea was created last year to raise awareness about the role of the mariner, and to pay tribute to seafarers around the world. Through walking, jogging, cycling and/or swimming, participants more than doubled the goal of “circumnavigating” the globe in solidarity with the mariners, raising nearly $50,000 that was distributed to seafarer welfare centers. The new initiative will focus attention on the current state of affairs with the crew change crisis and its impacts on mariners’ health and well-being.
As the challenges for seafarers remain, we continue to salute our Heroes at Sea with the iconic “Walk, Jog, Cycle and Swim”. The event will be from May 25th to June 25th in honor of the Day of the Seafarer. REGISTRATION is open, with all net fees and sponsorships going to both global and local mariner welfare programs.
