One Ocean Connects Us

The Surfrider Foundation is dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of the world’s ocean, waves, and beaches for all people, through a powerful activist network. Their mission: Clean water, beach access, coastal preservation, ocean protection, and less plastic pollution.
Our irreplaceable national network of chapter volunteers serves as the first response to local threats in coastal communities across the US. They are the boots on the ground who collaborate with both the local and national level with regional staff and issue experts to carry out our mission through campaign, program, and educational initiatives in their local communities. Our network grows stronger with every chapter we add.
At any given moment, we’re working on more than 100 campaigns across the country. Each and every campaign has a defined beginning, middle, and end. We’ve had 661 campaigns become victories since 2006. Read More
