Sailing for SOS

SOS Children's Villages supporter Lee Winters gave up a successful job last November to prepare for a sailing journey. His mission...to help raise awareness for SOS Children's Villages.

Starting from his home port of Kemah, Texas, Lee is currently sailing around Mexico on his way through the Panama Canal and off into the Pacific Ocean. Throughout his journey, he will visit SOS Villages, blog about his experiences, publish videos, and raise $10,000 for SOS.

Lee recently stopped at the SOS Children's Village Hampolol near Campeche, Mexico in the Yucatán Peninsula as part of his Sailing for SOS campaign.

He visited with children at the village and the experience moved him deeply.

"Smiles come easy and the happiness permeates anyone who dares to visit," said Lee of his visit. "The joy comes from the knowledge that these are the lucky children. These kids have real homes and loving families."

"My day with these children taught me many things," he continued. "First, the only thing these kids ask for is love. Luckily for me, hugs are easy to provide and the return on investment is immediate."

"Secondly, the village runs more lean than any corporation in the world and their 'products' are the most well-behaved children I've ever encountered," said Lee. "Finally, it is wholly within our power — yours and mine — to enable more children to grow up in safe, loving homes like the one I saw in Hampolol."
