Today’s the Day! Giving Tuesday

The sons of Julie Richardson, DiveWise's founder, blacked out together on a 90' freedive, barely surviving this event.

The sons of Julie Richardson, DiveWise’s founder, blacked out together on a near-fatal 90′ freedive.

Today is Giving Tuesday. If you believe, like we do, that every freediver deserves to have access to life-saving education about freediver blackout, please rise to the challenge and donate to DiveWise today.

Every year we lose far too many freedivers to shallow water blackout. Those who engage in the sport of freediving/spearfishing need access to good safety education. Yet, many freedivers can’t afford a hands-on course. Divers Alert Network, Oceanicss, and Performance Freediving International are as concerned as we are and have partnered with us to create a free online freedive safety education portal to ensure every freediver has access to life saving educational information, in particular, how to avoid a fatal event due to blackout.

Become a positive force in the sport of freediving and spearfishing! Today, on Giving Tuesday, help us provide a free online freedive education portal so everyone can be protected with life saving skills and knowledge.  Join our team and help us make freediving/spearfishing safer for the future. Will you help provide freedivers and spearfishers with life saving skills by donating today?

Thank you for your commitment and support.    DONATE NOW
