Restoration through Recreation

Surf Development

Long Term Projects

Community development is a long term commitment. We select, focus and commit to one specific community. We identify youth between the ages of 12 to 18 years of age who desire to be mentored and would benefit from our Aleph Surf Program. Our approach is of the slow and steady kind. It requires us to love our students deeply by being consistent and persevering even when it is tough.

We use a combination of lifeskills, surf lessons and activities to grow together and convey our messages over:

you are loved, you are valued, you have potential

dream, set goals, work hard to reach them

respect others, treat them with dignity, do unto others as you want done unto yourself

Projects are run as an afternoon program and youth have to belong to an educational institution to participate in our activities.

Surf Camps

Hosting:

Short Term Surf Camps allow us to go deeper with students in a location away of their day to day living space. This also cultivates a spirit of adventure and exploring – seeking the unknown together. We also make a point to expose Aleph Students to youth conferences where they can learn, acquire skills and meet youth from other regions.

Sending:

Our second form of surf camps is where Aleph sends teams to assist with long term embedded surf projects around the world.

Training & Consulting

We have been doing community development through surfing since 2006. This has allowed us to learn a thing or two about this field of work. Now we get to share those lessons with others who request our help by providing training and resources.

Feel free to contact us for more information and let us know how we can help!

Our

Belief

We believe that true change can only come from heart transformation.

That is why Aleph is a non-profit faith based organisation. We believe that all people have been created with free will and choice and have the right to believe and follow whatever he/she wills. All life has meaning and value. We do not discriminate on grounds of religion, race or culture and will help whoever is in need.

Our hope is for people to have a life-changing encounter with Jesus/Yeshua, become citizens of the Kingdom and can live as sons and daughters of the Great I Am.
