<div>‍This Giving Tuesday, let's ride the wave of generosity for GNOME Surf! ‍
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We're not just a surf therapy organization, we're a family of over 5000 athletes and their loved ones who have found solace, strength, and joy in the healing power of the ocean. But we need YOUR help to keep the tide rolling!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This Giving Tuesday, we're setting a goal of $25,000. With a matching pledge from our corporate partners, we can double our impact and bring surf therapy to another 5000 families. We don't ask for much, but we do need the support of our GNOME family to make this happen.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The cost of providing a surf therapy session for Gnome Surf between paying for staff, equipment, permits, and insurance costs is roughly just under $100/session to our organization. With our partner match, each $50 donation will provide life-altering surf therapy to a child in need. Reaching our goal will provide 500 families with a scholarship for a free surf session at a Happy Camp or individual session. Every year we have to spend over $20,000 on new surfboards alone, as we are not able to use the boards year after year due to the damage and amount of lessons each board sees every summer. Every $250 donated, with our partner match will provide one new surfboard for our Athletes to use. This year we are developing a mounted chair for our Athletes with mobility challenges as they grow it is more and more difficult to simply tandem surf. This chair device will cost $5,000, 10 donors at $500 each will make this a reality. We need more wheelchairs, as we have grown and have multiple athletes with mobility challenges needing beach-friendly wheelchairs to ensure proper access to programs, each chair costs north of $2,500. Basically, we humbly ask for your help in keeping up with the growing needs of our Special Athletes.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We're calling on you to rise to the challenge! Create a crowdfunding team, start a Facebook fundraiser, or share our GoFundMe link. Every wave of support counts! And here's a bonus: any team that raises $500 or more will be entered to win a dreamy surf trip to Costa Rica in 2025!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This Giving Tuesday, remember GNOME Surf in your year-end giving strategies. Together, we can make a splash and change lives, one wave at a time. Believe in Inclusion, Believe in Community, Believe in proper Mental Health as well as Social Emotional Wellbeing, Believe in our Athletes, and Give the Gift of Love by donating and Believing in our Athletes as a part of your year-end giving strategy.
