Our mission is simple; to introduce skydiving to terminally ill young adults via our charitable Sky Warrior Program.
Our Story
This all started when my daughter Dana wanted to fulfill a bucket
list item by skydiving. You see, Dana was diagnosed with terminal
stage IV brain cancer on Valentine's Day, 2012. She was 18 years old
at the time.
Not wanting to sit on the sidelines Dana made her first tandem
jump in October 2014. The look on her face during and after her jump
made us realize that everyone at some point needs to face their
unfounded fears and 'jump at life'. All it takes is someone behind
you, supporting you to do it. Our concept of a Sky Warrior™ was born.
The organization Jump at Life is a passion for us because we
know that there are other young adults out there who are facing the
same battles as Dana. By giving them the support and assistance to
jump they too will become Sky Warriors.
For young people facing a terminal illness, being able to say
that they flew with their tandem guide and became a Sky Warrior gives
strength. Strength that these warriors already have inside of them,
but sometimes forget. Being a Sky Warrior allows not only the young
adult, but their family to see that no one is alone in the fight and
we are all behind them.
This labor of love is dedicated to all those young adults who
go to war every day.
Thank you for paying it forward. The light is ALWAYS green, JUMP!
