Join our Stokes Me team and help us raise funds for 10 worthy groups

Join us!

We’ve joined SIMA’s month-long Stokes Me fundraising campaign by donating a portion of proceeds from our October Executive Edition membership sales to the cause.

Now we’re asking all of our generous readers, Executive Edition members, sponsors, business partners, vendors, family and friends to join our team and help us raise funds for 10 worthy charities:

• Best Day Foundation
• Cystic Fibrosis Foundation
• Jimmy Miller Foundation
• Keep a Breast
• Life Rolls On
• Outdoor Outreach
• Stoked Mentoring
• SurfAid International
• Surfers Healing
• Waves for Water

This moving video shows their good work better than we can describe it in words:

Alexis and Ross Garrett

We’ve jumped into the campaign now because we wanted to support these charities and the work they do — and lend our backing to SIMA Humanitarian Fund President Ross Garrett’s idea for expanding the industry’s philanthropy.

Watch our Industry Insight page for Ross’s weekly updates on the progress of the team competition and individual fundraising challenge.

We’re proud that we’re in the Top 5 fundraising teams as of today, and we look forward to your contributions to help us grow the giving before the campaign ends on October 30.

Thanks to our generous donors to date:
