Surfrider Foundation

Surfrider was started over thirty years ago, by a group of surfers from Malibu, California, who were concerned about the health risks associated with environmental threats posed by escalating coastal development at their favorite surf spot.

Surfrider Foundation has evolved into one of the largest non-profit grassroots organizations dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of the world's ocean, waves and beaches through a powerful activist network. Taking on an environmental battle may not be easy, but with constant pressure, endlessly applied, it can, and will, be won.

Go Light Our World (GLOW)

Diminishing Poverty w/ Eco Solutions
Founded by Kayla Nielsen, GLOW distributes solar solutions to impoverished communities around the world, which are otherwise relying on kerosene-fueled lanterns. They are dedicated to cultivating compassion for the Earth and all beings through authentic acts of selfless service. They believe in creating sustainable projects. Part of their mission is not only to provide clean, green, and limitless light for all people, but also for the recipients to maintain financial responsibility upon receiving their solar donations.

GLOW calls upon karma yoga, authentic acts of selfless service, as a main source of their fundraising. Yoga teachers from around the world have joined their global movement by donating their time to host pop-up, donation-based classes in their communities to support solar projects.

ASPCA

The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) was the first humane society to be established in North America and is, today, one of the largest in the world. The organization was founded by Henry Bergh in 1866 on the belief that animals are entitled to kind and respectful treatment at the hands of humans, and must be protected under the law.

The ASPCA maintains a strong local presence, and is dedicated to fulfilling the ASPCA mission through nonviolent approaches. The ASPCA provides local and national leadership in three key areas: caring for pet parents and pets, providing positive outcomes for at-risk animals and serving victims of animal cruelty.
