"Happiness doesn't result from what we get, but from what we give."

Chasin' A Dream is a local non-profit organization that we support through a monthly contribution. As a nurse, this is incredibly close to my heart. They help families and children that are diagnosed with life-threatening diseases. An excerpt from their website: "Chasin A Dream Foundation empowers families with children facing life-threatening illnesses by providing personalized, transformative support. Our mission is to ease the burden on families with children battling cancer, cystic fibrosis, heart disease, and other life-threatening illnesses and disabilities, by offering individualized assistance that promotes healing and hope."

Another incredible foundation we've chosen to support is the Surfrider Foundation. An excerpt from their website: "We believe that with constant pressure, endlessly applied — anything is possible. Our network of dedicated activists are at beach cleanups, rallies, city council meetings, and even the halls of Congress advocating for our ocean, waves, and beaches...We hold industry giants and our government accountable while championing your voice and amplifying your impact."

Brave the Wave Co

Brave the Wave Co is a non-profit I discovered through Instagram. Their goal is to make wake surfing more accessible to the adaptive community. I found their mission so inspiring and uplifting. An excerpt from their website:  "The goal of Brave the Wave is to bring together the adaptive community through the sport of wakesurfing. When teaching individuals how to wake surf we have seen a transformation in their world realizing as humans we are capable of doing so much more than we ever think possible. Come join us in 2023 to challenge yourself, push the limits, and find the stoke!"

National Forest Foundation

At The Little Surfer Dude we are very aware of our environmental impact. Everything we make is thoughtfully created in small batches with the goal to minimize as much waste as possible. With this in mind we have also chosen to support the National Forest Foundation.
