MIAMI CHAPTER
The Surfrider Foundation is a non-profit grassroots organization dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of our world’s oceans, waves and beaches. Founded in 1984 by a handful of visionary surfers in Malibu, California, the Surfrider Foundation now maintains over 250,000 supporters, activists and members and more than 100 chapters worldwide. The Miami chapter was started by Wyatt Porter Brown and T.C over 15 years ago to begin pressing the City of Miami Beach to enforce existing litter laws and reverse the trashing of our local beaches. Join our network and help us tackle the issues that face our ocean, waves and beaches. You can be our Miami representative on the ground and collaborate on both the local and national level with our regional staff and issue experts to carry out our mission through campaigns, programs and educational initiatives in the world.
We don’t just play. We win.

MIAMI...GET INVOLVED! OUR WORK
Miami is facing growing challenges from pollution, real estate development and climate change. At the same time, expanding industries, such as shore oil drilling, threaten to crowd our ocean and degrade its health (and those who call it home!). This is precisely why Surfrider built a network of passion in the heart of Miami, driven by people who are on the ground and are the voice for our ocean and beaches. With one foot in the sand and the other in the water, the Surfrider Foundation is the only non-profit organization 100 percent focused on the protection of South Florida’s coasts.
VOLUNTEER
We are always looking for new members or just people who want to get involved. Surfrider is all about grassroots volunteering. That means getting people involved in activities and outreach in our local community and state, and helping them take the lead on creating change! There’s always something you can do to help, and if you have a good idea or know of an opportunity, let us know. For volunteer opportunities please contact Steve Vincenti at volunteercoordinator@miami.surfrider.org For general questions or ideas, contact Jayson Koch at Chair@miami.surfrider.org
