WB Surf Camp Financial Aid

Overview

To ensure access to a broad range of well qualified participants, WB Surf Camp encourages those who need financial assistance to apply for partial scholarships to participate in our summer learn to surf overnight camps, day camps, and marine biology adventures. Our Financial Aid committee carefully considers several factors, including family income, ethnic, racial and cultural diversity, teacher references, student essays, and commitment to the program as reflected in the application.

Our goal is to empower financially disadvantaged students by helping them experience physical accomplishment, become more environmentally conscious, assume leadership roles, and build self confidence. Our program changes lives!

The deadline to receive financial aid applications is still open. If you have previously received financial aid, please do not assume that the same award can be offered again. We strongly believe that everyone should have the chance to experience the magic of surfing and its connection towards coastal conservation. Every year we award thousands of dollars to deserving participants. All you have to do is apply, and we will do everything we can.

Bags for Bucks Financial Assistance

We’ve created a unique, community-based initiative to help offset the cost of camp tuition. Bags for Bucks offers students the ability to create positive change in their neighborhood through the simple act of cleaning up litter and recycling the waste. This is a great way for you to beautify your neighborhood areas, do something great for the environment, and earn your way towards attending one of our camps.

To get started with Bags for Bucks, talk to your friends, family, and maybe even local businesses, to see if they would be willing to sponsor you. Each sponsor will determine a dollar amount they want donate for each bag of trash you collect. For example, if your Uncle Joe will sponsor each bag at $5 and you collect 20 bags of trash, then you just earned $100 towards your camp! So, the more sponsors you get and the more trash you collect, the more money you earn towards your camp tuition.
