Join Brown Girl Surf and  Storytellers for Good  for the KICK OFF Surfing Possibility fundraiser on October 11, 2012 in San Francisco, CA!

This Fall, I, along with my friend Cara of Storytellers for Good will be traveling to India and Bangladesh to meet South Asia’s first female surfers.  We want you to come along for the ride!  We will share with you their stories and our journey through a series of blogs, short-form documentary profiles and photographs. 

Why are we doing this project?  Aside from the fact that it's just cool, we want to empower and inspire people.  So, we will use the media as educational tools to speak on topics of female empowerment and risk taking in diverse cultures.  We will also use it to inspire a culture of trailblazing women and girls to live in possibility of their dreams!

It is good to see some of the brave girls from Polynesia. It is for the first time that I am seeing the young girl surfers from this place. I appreciate you people for your achievement. Good luck and keep the number of members up.
