Spreading the Love

Organizations and Companies that I Support


There are many national and international organizations and companies that do a lot to help the environment and people. These are companies and organizations local to me that do so much for the community that I have to share them with everyone. From the people that keep the trails in order, to the organizations that keep the sports that I love accessible, to organizations that help where we live, and the companies that make great fish tacos. If you would like me to add other great organizations of companies, let me know.

“I’ve been a longtime member of BMBA. They keep the trails in great order and continue to add miles and miles of trails. While I can’t dig as much as I’d like, I always renew my membership and drop a few buck at the GFT donation box, when riding.”

“The Surfrider Foundation is responsible for all of us enjoying the ocean. In fact, I was a chapter VP turned President for over 4 years. Life and children made it hard to run meetings and events every month, but I’m still a supporter of the cause.”

“If you’ve seen my wildlife photography, you would think that birds are my favorite animals. But turtles have always been my spirit animals. I always have is the STPS phone number on speed dial. In case a shelled friend needs help.”

“I did mention fish tacos, but this is much more than that. For nearly two decades, Long Doggers has been a post-surf session and almost weekly dinner spot. The beachy dishes are delicious, affordable, and service is always great and friendly.”

“Yes, Mike Rogers can skate! I’m glad to have shared many skate sessions with him. But more than that, he’s an amazing person. He and GFL keep kids skating at their best. From fun sessions, to skateboard raffles, to major events Mike just keeps going.”

“Master shaper, amazing surfer, musician, and most of all, Ricky loves to share his love for surfing with everyone. From tours of his shaping factory to playing with his band for Surfrider events, he does it all. Some of my favorite boards are Ricky’s.”
