This year’s Surfers Healing Virginia Beach will be held on Saturday, August 17, 2013.  Registration will be live on-line on May 3, 2013 at 7pm EST.  For those of you new to the process: 

Please note that you will want to be at home, sitting at your computer by 6:50 on the www.surfershealing.org website (not our Virginia Beach one). Keep refreshing your browser until the link is live and hit that sucker as fast as you can. If you get to the PayPal page asking if you would like to donate, then that means your registration has gone through but you DO NOT have to donate if you do not wish to. We will be online on Facebook during this time should anyone have questions but please also note that Surfers Healing VB does not control the registration process. Good luck and don’t forget to mark your calendars, set a reminder in your phone, etc. ~Ginny, SHVB

Please watch your email for confirmation.

Surfers Healing was founded by Israel and Danielle Paskowitz. Their son, Isaiah, was diagnosed with autism at age three. Like many children with autism, he often suffered from sensory overload– simple sensations could overwhelm him. The ocean was the one place where he seemed to find respite.

A former competitive surfer, Israel hit upon an idea–with Isaiah on the front of his surfboard, and Izzy steering from the back, the two spent the day surfing together. Surfing had a profound impact on Isaiah. Israel and Danielle decided they wanted to share this unique therapy, they began to host day camps at the beach where children with autism and their families could be exposed to a completely
new experience of surfing.

Virginia Beach has hosted the Surfers Healing Team for nearly a decade now. Each year has been a huge success thanks to the sea of support from our many Community Partners, Sponsors and Volunteers.
This occasion has been rated by locals and participating families as one of the most
touching and most inspirational events they
have ever experienced!

Surfers Healing VB is organized and run through Guardian Angels Fund, Inc. a 501(C)3 Non-Profit & Philanthropic organization.
