Become a Patron

Fund Purpose. Fuel the Ocean. Shape the Future.

Why Become a Patron?

Surfing is more than a sport. It’s a movement—a tool for empowering youth, protecting our coastlines, and building a better future for India’s ocean communities.

But this movement can’t run on passion alone. Government support is inconsistent. Event sponsorships are seasonal. To build long-term impact, we need long-term partners.

That’s why we invite you to become a Patron of the Surfing Swami Foundation.
