Projects we have supported to date include:

ABMF Surf-A-Thon

We co-host an annual surf event with the Me Water foundation, City Surf Project and Triple Point Expeditions. For this event we take inner city youth surfing allowing them to explore a new  sport, in a safe setting while being taught by great instructors. The attendees are taught the intricacies of surfing in conjunction with life lessons and many other skills.
