MISSION: To use the sport of surfing as a medium to give back by serving and meeting the needs of others both locally and internationally.

HISTORY: Founded by Tom and Cindy Bauer in 1997, they believed that the sport of surfing could be used as a vehicle to give back, by serving and meeting the needs of others both locally and internationally.

TODAY: Today, Surfing the Nations has organized missions all over the world, including such areas like Indonesia, Morocco, and Sri Lanka.  Using surfing as a common language, Surfing the Nations has been able to reach into others’ lives with the purpose of loving and serving.  With their home-base in Honolulu, they have been extremely involved in communities all over Hawaii.  Surfing the Nations has organized outreach programs that deal with prostitution, homelessness, and drug addiction within the youth of Hawaii.  Through the sales of this Hope Collection Tee $10,182.70 has been contributed to Surfing the Nations.
