We really enjoyed making pizza for all of the friends of the Surfrider Foundation.
The Surfrider Foundation raised over $5,000 in one afternoon, thanks to the hard work of many people who volunteered their time and resources. If you are interested in helping out, there is so much you can do for our beautiful oceans. Check out the Surfrider calendar of events to see what is going on in your area.
Here is the history of the Surfrider Foundation:
Thirty years ago a group of surfers from Malibu, California, were concerned about the health risks associated with environmental threats posed by escalating coastal development at their favorite surf spot. They took action. Not even they could have envisioned the history they were making when they succeeded in protecting their beloved surf spot.
Since its inception in 1984, the Surfrider Foundation has evolved into one of the largest non-profit grassroots organizations with a volunteer-activist network dedicated to its mission to protect and enjoy the world’s oceans, waves and beaches.
Today, the Surfrider Foundation is measurably stronger, with more force and movement than ever before. It has 84 chapters, including 30 high school and college clubs, and more than 250,000 supporters, volunteers and activists fighting 90 active campaigns around the country. Armed with a model to defend the coast, the organization has a record of 292 victories (and counting)since 2006.
Filled with times of uncertainty, it hasn’t been easy. The Surfrider Foundation’s long-term success and growth is a tribute to its founders vision, that taking on an environmental battle may not be easy, but with constant pressure, endlessly applied, it can be won. And the key to this is what makes the organization unique…
We were happy to partner with the Surfrider Foundation, their friendly staff of volunteers were upbeat and wanted to make it a fun time for all involved, well done!
