Supporting Surfrider Foundation Together

---

Surfrider Foundation Pledge

In the second ever blog post on this site, I am pledging to donate 5% of Surfy Money proceeds to the Surfrider Foundation. When you buy stuff through this site or sign-up for various accounts and services, we may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you and 5% of that will go to Surfrider Foundation to protect our beaches and clean water.

I’ve been a member of the Surfrider Foundation for years and am excited to up my contribution. Thank you for making it possible

Why Surfrider Foundation?

Surfing brings this community together at it’s core and this is what Surfrider Foundation supports:

• Plastic Reduction: Reducing the impact of plastics in the marine environments that surround us
• Ocean Protection: Defending our oceans from challenges threatening the vitality of the ecosystem
• Beach Access: Working with decision-makers to ensure full and fair beach access for all to enjoy
• Coast & Climate: Taking on issues that threaten our beaches and natural shorelines
• Clean Water: Protecting the health and sustainability of our planet’s most precious resource

Impact

As of writing, they have accomplished the following:

• 200 Chapters and Student Clubs
• 800+ Victories to Protect Our Coast
• 182k+ Volunteer Hours in 2021

How Can I support?

There are many ways you can support Surfrider Foundation:

• Volunteer with a Surfrider Club near you. While you’re helping clean up, you’ll also get to meet cool people. I know at least one couple that budded their relationship during a Surfrider beach clean up event
• Shop their store and show your support. Get gifts for family and friends too!
• Donate. Just $10 per month helps protect a quarter mile of your local coast
• Take Action: Take action right from your computer by contacting local officials
• Surfy Money: We pledge to donate 5% of our proceeds. Thank you

What about other organizations?

There are lots of amazing causes to support and I plan to highlight some of them here. If there is an organization that supports surfing and you wanted it highlighted on this site, please reach out.
