Outreach
We have partnered with Chicama Surf Terapia, who provide surf equipment and instruction to the local kids (ages 5-17) of Chicama, Peru, dubbed the longest left in the world.
Access to surfing. With approximately 100 enrolled in the program and only enough surf equipment for 40, there is a massive need for wetsuits and surfboards for these kids. The profit from our surf camps and fundraising efforts go toward providing this equipment to the local kids of Chicama.
Surfing heals. The president of Chicama Surf Terapia, Maricela Arroyo de la Cruz, stresses the importance of their regular Saturday surf camps. Many of the local kids of Chicama struggle with depression; with heartbreaking stories of youth suicide in their community, surfing has been a powerfully uplifting source of light.
