The Surfrider Foundation is a non-profit grassroots organization dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of our world's oceans, waves and beaches. Our local chapter, which covering the beaches from Marina Del Rey up through Malibu, is the West Los Angeles / Malibu Chapter. Please check out the chapter website to get involved: http://www.surfriderwlam.org

4)  Why should I collect money for them?
Because you want the water you surf and swim in to be cleaner. The local chapter of Surfrider Foundation is working to raise awareness about the dirty water at our beaches.  They have organized programs such as Teach & Test that allow highschool students to perform water testing for school credit, and Ocean Friendly Gardens, a new approach to gardening that minimizes urban runoff. They also organize beach cleanups the first Saturday of every month. All of these programs have been successful in raising awareness though they need funds to take them to the next level. That's why the Surfrider Foundation needs your help!
