SFM X OceanFolx Raffle - Pleasure Surfboard Prize
The Single Fin Mingle is teaming up with OceanFolx and Pleasure Surfboards to host an exclusive raffle, giving you the chance to win a custom 6’1” SingleFin board from Pleasure. Tickets are available for purchase online here, and winner will be drawn at the end of the event. All proceeds from the raffle will go directly toward supporting OceanFolx and its mission to empower women through ocean education.
OceanFolx is a 501c3 non profit based in Lombok Indonesia. We work in partnership with local lombok women to teach them swimming, ocean safety and surfing skills.
We provide this program at no cost to local women and actually compensate them for their time to offset any missed wages from work. Our program prevents drowning, encourages leadership and female empowerment, and promotes environmental stewardship.
Drowning is the third leading cause of unintentional injury death worldwide and one of the leading causes of accidental injury death in Indonesia. Each year, over 300,000 people die from drowning globally, with over two thirds of deaths occurring in Southeast Asia. The majority of Indonesian women, who also are the primary caregivers to their children, do not know how to swim.
Teaching women how to swim has been shown to have amplified impacts in their families and communities, preventing drowning region-wide. Currently, no broad prevention programs in Indonesia exist. We are working directly to solve this problem. By empowering women to be leaders in ocean safety, we start a life-saving ripple effect as they share this knowledge to their families and communities.
All proceeds from the raffle will go directly to enabling our program to run next year. We had so much interest this year that we even had to turn some girls away. We’re hoping to run programs next year and are currently fundraising to make it happen!
The raffle will be drawn on Mingle Sunday, and each person can buy multiple tickets.
