Lindsay Maphet, whose family owns Aolani Catamaran Sailing, along with friends, Lauren Johnson Blair, local military wife and mother, and Makayla Lay, of Willis Allen Real Estate Coronado, are hosting a Sip n Sail event on the Aolani on November 9th, from 6-8pm. It will be a two-hour sunset sail on San Diego Bay, with the ticket proceeds going to Angel House, a Rescue Orphanage in India that has already built 136 homes for children, thus far, each housing 25-50 children who would otherwise be begging for food, homeless, or even involved in sex trafficking. It is a dark reality that the women are hoping to shed light on by hosting this event.
This will be the first public event on-board the Aolani Catamaran (which can host up to 48 passengers) – and they hope to host bi-monthly Sip n Sail fundraisers in 2018. Tickets for the event on November 9 are $95 per person, which include endless fun, cocktails and delicious appetizers, during the two hour sail.
The money raised during this event will go toward the following:
- Land Acquisition
- Materials and Labor
- Home construction
- Furnishings
- Fresh Water Well
- School Supplies
- Caregivers
- Playground Equipment
- Clothing and MORE

From the Angel House team: “Without a miraculous rescue, each child was doomed to end up in one of three places: forced child trafficking, child labor, or begging on the streets for barely enough to get by. This is no life for a human being, let alone for a child.”
Help build a home for these children and sail on November 9th! Use the hashtag #FindYourIndia and get involved in the cause!
