Review for Project Athena Foundation, San Diego, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I am a survivor of attempted murder and had problems rehabilitating in society due to uncomfortable PTSD symptoms. For a while after my traumatic experience, day to day social interactions were a struggle; I was always on the defensive, group social interactions were a "nightmare" I wanted to avoid at all costs.
I then discovered Project Athena, applied, and was accepted for their June 2014 Grand Canyon Rim2Rim Trek. Spending great time with the interesting and amazing people of Project Athena really brought me out of my shell. I can't deny that there is something highly therapeutic about hiking long distances while chit chatting, enjoying the beauty of the canyon, and swapping funny annecdotes.
I am incredibly grateful for what Robyn, Andrea, Louise, and all the other organizers of Project Athena have done for me and all the other participants.
They really are true philanthropists, dedicating their hard work, their love, their time to the organization of the project so everyone can share the best experience imaginable.
