Through the dynamic sport of dragon boat racing, SOS empowers women to reclaim their strength, rebuild their confidence, and support one another on and off the water. It’s about healing, connection, and the belief that survivorship can be active, joyful and bold. The mission is rooted in wellness, education and sisterhood. Members not only find physical strength through paddling, but also emotional support and lasting friendships. They lead by example, showing others that life after a breast cancer diagnosis can be vibrant and fulfilling. Looking forward, the organization is eager to grow its impact — reaching more survivors, educating the public about breast health, and building a wider circle of hope and solidarity. Whether you’re a survivor ready to paddle, a volunteer who wants to lend a hand, or a supporter looking to donate, your participation matters. By joining SOS, you become part of a movement that proves that together, we are stronger; TeamSOSMiami.org
