We don't feel that its right to charge for our camps. The only way we are able to do this is by the generosity of people such as yourselves. We would like to increase the number of camps this coming year. More funding will help us accomplish this.
Our expenses are many. Most visible are wetsuits, surfboards, rash guards, life vests and other equipment that must be replaced every season. Food and drinks are provided to the kids and their families. Beach permits, insurance, and administration are other equally important if less visible expenses that we incur.
Surfers Healing is operated on a shoe string budget. Sometimes when we are low on gear our volunteers buy their own special boards for the camp to make the day that much more enjoyable for the kids. (Our volunteers are the greatest!)
Surfers Healing provides a remarkable day to kids that are in a difficult position. Please join us by making a donation through our secure server. We are a public, nonprofit organization with 501(c)(3) status.
