City Surf Project is a San Francisco-based organization in the wellness and fitness services sector that teaches surfing to youth from low-income communities who may have limited access to similar programs. The initiative focuses on building life skills such as self-confidence and perseverance while connecting students with nature and using the ocean as a stress-relief and meditative outlet. Its curriculum features a physically demanding training regime designed to foster discipline and resilience, with the aim of translating wave-riding skills into better coping with stress and trauma in daily life. In 2019, the organization received the Best of Competition award for Sports Mixed Video.
