Float It Forward
Midwest Float is proud to offer a pay-it-forward program for our active and veteran military service men and women, and actively collaborates with the Military Veteran Project Partnership to help veterans discover floating as one of the therapies available to them.
To either donate or receive a float from the Float It Forward Fund, please send us an email at Floatitforward@midwestfloat.com explaining what you would like to do,and we will take it from there.
If you’re donating to the fund, and we don’t already have your information in our system, please include your phone number with your message.
If you’re requesting floats from the fund, please include a very quick summary of your military service. ( Nothing too detailed,just the basics)
The Float It Forward campaign was initiated by Midwest Float and Military Veteran Project to encourage and to give a way for people to say Thank You to veterans nationwide by purchasing alternative treatments for military suicide prevention through the #FloatItForward campaign.
Float It Forward is at the core of the Military Veteran Project’s mission and we want to get the entire world involved!
Research shows: *Kindness is contagious. *Kindness increases group cohesion and employee engagement. *It’s a great team building opportunity. *A great way to thank clients. *It teaches kids to appreciate those around them. * It involves and empowers everyone. *It builds the community and helps keep the world as a great place to live.
Here some ideas on how to FLOAT IT FORWARD:
Visit Midwest Float- when you buy one float for yourself, float it forward and give back to a veteran
Donate online to float it forward
Share the #FLOATITFORWARD on social media and help rally support
Make a donation to the Military Veteran Project so that we can invest it into our Military Veterans and to the community year after year.
Active military and veterans are among those who benefit the most from the unique combination of benefits that floating and sensory deprivation offer. In combination with other traditional therapies, it can be an incredible tool for unwinding the effects of PTSD and its many co-factors, such as depression and anxiety. Additionally, the large transdermal (via skin) exposure of magnesium-rich Epsom salts is one of the most effective ways of physically de-stressing the body. Many vets find the solitude of the float tank environment to be a refreshingly different and comfortable space for processing their personal thoughts.
Our #FLOATITFORWARD program provides other floaters an opportunity to give back by donating into a float fund.
Those who are on a Float Club membership can opt to have one of their monthly floats automatically donated into the Float it Forward fund.
Active military and veterans can sign up to be notified when new floats are available in the fund.
Names for assigning Float It Forward opportunities are chosen randomly, and we’ll choose give preference to someone who has not had the opportunity to experience floating before over someone who has already floated. In the event that all subscribed fund recipients have floated before, we’ll simply go down the list sequentially based on subscription date.
No personal identification between giver and receiver will ever occur; this a totally anonymous pay-it-forward model.
