HELP KIDS SURF
We Surf is working towards a future where every child who wants to surf has the opportunity to do so, regardless of their circumstance, ability or background. Every child in Australia deserves the chance to experience the joy of surfing. We Surf helps kids connect with their local surf communities through the power of the ocean.
MISSION
At We Surf, our mission is simple — surfing is for everyone. No matter your background, ability or where you come from, there's a wave out there for you. We're here to make sure every kid gets the chance to find it.
WHAT WE DO
We Surf provides free surfing experiences for children across Australia, partnering with local surf schools in every region. Through our Safe Surf programs, we create fun, inclusive environments where kids can grow, thrive and find their place in the lineup. When a young person catches their first wave, confidence builds, friendships form, and a love for the ocean begins.
GET ON BOARD
Everyone is welcome in the lineup. Our Safe Surf programs are built for kids from all walks of life, giving them the chance to ride waves, build resilience and experience the pure joy of the ocean. We proudly support families facing financial challenges and children under the NDIS program, because we believe no kid should miss out. Together, we're building a community where every young person can belong, grow and thrive.
Testimonials
“My daughter was so thrilled to be offered a sponsorship with We Surf — it gave her confidence, made her feel included, and she learnt a new skill which she now does on her own. It's such an amazing opportunity, and we could never have afforded to give her something like this.”
— WE SURF PARENT, TWEED COAST
"We Surf gave our young people an experience they still talk about. The confidence and joy we saw out on the water were something we couldn't have replicated anywhere else. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend the program to any organisation working with vulnerable youth."
— YOUTH WORKER, SUNSHINE COAST
"My son has struggled socially his whole life. Since joining We Surf, he lights up on beach days — he's made real friends and finally found something he's truly proud of. We can't thank the We Surf team enough."
