The Wahine Project is an organization that was created in an effort to reach young girls who would otherwise not have access to the resources that would allow them to surf. Whether geographical, financial or lack of opportunity, The Wahine Project seeks to break down the barriers that prevent the participation of young girls in the sport of surfing and provide them the opportunity to not only become proficient surfers but as a result of surfing, increase their awareness to their global citizenship. Through education, outreach and travel young girls will be provided opportunities that will give them a sense of social responsibility that surfing uniquely provides.
We told Dionne we would pass the word on about the mission of The Wahine Project. She is always looking for support, financially and with gear donations. Tell her we sent you.
Thank you for the shout out for The Wahine Project. It is a dream come true for me to be able to support girls surfing especially in Sayulita and Punta de Mita where I feel its my second home and the inspiration for starting the project. Can't wait to get back and surf with the ninas. See you soon. Looking forward to following your blog!!
