This month, I’m surfing for 30 days straight in the “make a wave” challenge to raise awareness and funding for surfaid programs for communities in remote surfing destinations.
This September I am surfing every day for the month to raise funds for SurfAid. When you support my fundraising you give people in remote communities connected to us through surfing a hand-up, rather than a handout.
Thanks to surfing, I’ve had the privilege to travel to some incredibly beautiful yet very remote parts of the world, and this feels like a small way for me to give back to the people of these regions.
SurfAid's geographical focus is on the heartlands of surfing where few visitors but surfers go, making their work unique. They specialize in working in very isolated villages where the maternal and child mortality rates are some of the highest in the world.
With your support, we can give families the best chance of getting ahead by providing access to healthcare, clean water and sanitation, and improved nutrition. Anything you can donate to support my efforts is greatly appreciated.
My goal is to fundraise $500 by the end of the month, so if you are able to support me with a tax-deductible donation, I would greatly appreciate it! Together we can make a real impact on the well-being of individuals in isolated regions.
Here’s how your donations can make an impact:
$29 can provide health and hygiene training for a mother for a year.
$47 can help a family access seed nurseries and a nutrition garden.
$80 can give a family access to a latrine and handwashing facilities.
$181 can equip a community health post with essential equipment.
$500 can help a family access clean water for a year.
