Well all its been a while since I have done an update here.

Currently Diveheart is preparing various groups of persons with disabilities for certifications and trips to the keys. We currently have 5 certification trips scheduled. The first one is with our Diveheart Military Wounded program. We are taking 4-5 disabled Vets as well as some VA staff members to the Keys in May.

Then with a program for Oaklawn, IL area disabled residents, Rehab Institute of Chicago, Illinois Council for Recreation and Education, and Shriner's Hospital we have four more trips scheduled for this summer.

We also have a Spring fundraiser occuring on the the 31st of May at Ballydoyle Pub and Restaurant in Downers Grove, IL.

Finally we are continuing with buddy and instructor training with classes nearly every month.

We are always looking for additional volunteers so if you are in the Chicago area looks us up. Also we do training across the globe for dive operations interested in working with the disabled.
