Diveheart

The film tells the inspiring story of Gabe's role in installing the legendary "Christ of the Deep" statue in the 1960s and his remarkable return to diving decades later—after losing his sight. Now blind, Gabe rediscovers the underwater marvel he helped bring to life, thanks to Diveheart’s adaptive diving programs.

The award acknowledges Diveheart’s groundbreaking initiatives, including its adaptive scuba programs that transform lives by helping individuals with disabilities discover their potential beneath the surface. Diveheart’s relentless dedication to promoting accessibility, training instructors, and fostering a supportive community continues to inspire divers and non-divers alike.
