Wellness Warriors, Boston’s dynamic all-cancer survivor paddling support group, takes its message of survivor power to Italy for dragon boat championships!
Just one of four US all cancer survivor dragon boat clubs, and the only New England club selected, Wellness Warriors faces off against other survivor athletes in the 14th International Dragon Boat Federation World Club Crew Championships in Ravenna, Italy, September 2024. It is an honor to represent U.S. cancer survivors on the world stage!

WE ARE CANCER THRIVERS.
We are men and women of all ages who are surviving all types of cancers, and many continue to undergo treatment for their cancer. Wellness Warriors’ survivor athletes are police officers, teachers, nurses, musicians, artists, veterans, volunteers, and retirees. We are the young mother of a child with special needs, a physician-researcher with a promising career cut short, an audiologist, a physical therapist, a Girl Scout Troop Leader. Wellness Warriors, our floating dragon boat support group, has allowed us to thrive, earning us a berth in the world championship races in 2020 and 2024.

CAN YOU HELP US GET THERE?
As this fierce team of all-cancer survivors gets ready to represent Boston at the 2024 World Championships, there are goals to be met, both physical and financial. We need your support to send every ounce of survivor power to Italy!
For cancer survivors,
dragon boating is a way to recover strength and regain physical confidence after treatment as well as a means of bonding with other survivors. As our supporter, you will help us send a message of hope and healing to not only our local community, but to the worldwide community of cancer survivors.
