Help MeWater Foundation get a van!!!!

Founded in San Francisco in 2015, MeWater Foundation is a Bay Area organization run by surfers and mental health professionals.

MeWater Foundation works to address adjustments of trauma and stress in young people from backgrounds of poverty and violence and provide a different way of relating to the world and communities that they live in.  

Young people growing up in challenging circumstances often experience barriers to accessing emotional support they need to cope with the stress of daily life. The constant stressors of under-resourced communities often result in behavioral and learning problems, the increase of social isolation in its members, and a need for realistic opportunities that enable young people to prosper. 

MeWater Foundation is about more than surfing. It is about increasing one's own self reliance and purpose. It is about leveraging the strengths of people and reducing social isolation by growing positive connections within the community with the ocean as a conduit to improvement of wellbeing.
