Surfrider Foundation Vancouver is a 100% volunteer-run registered Canadian charity dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of waves, oceans and beaches. Established under the same principles as the Vancouver Chapter, is Surfrider Foundation – Vancouver Island, which covers the Victoria and Tofino regions. Surfrider Foundation encompasses a community of recreational ocean users committed to preserving healthy coastlines for future generations. Their outreach and education programs impart hands-on opportunities to youth and others in the community to address ocean and coastal pollution, including beach clean-ups and other activities. The connection between Surfrider and the Take A Stand program will help to connect youth with opportunities to make a difference for coastal conservation.
