YOUTH enrollment
Un Mar de Colores program is free surf therapy, mentorship, and eco-field trips for 30 students over the span of a two year period. Our approach is to go deep with a small group to establish lasting, consistent, effective relationships that perpetuate personal growth and confidence. Our program is entirely free to our students and their families and because of that our scholarships only open every two years.
To that end, we ask that applicants meet three of the following four criteria:
YOUTH APPLICANTS SHOULD BE:
-
1. Local to San Diego County.
We serve students from North County San Diego by operating out of Oceanside and Encinitas Beaches.
We serve students from South County San Diego by operating out of La Jolla Shores.
-
2. From historically marginalized communities.
Our mission is to celebrate diversity and create connection to the ocean by providing no-cost surf lessons to serve families who may not have the resources to participate otherwise.
-
3. From a Low Income Family.
Priority given to students from families receiving federal and/or state assistance such as Section 8 Housing, Medi-Cal, and Cal-Fresh.
-
4. Between 6 and 12 years of age.
Our curriculum is thoughtfully developed for students between the ages of six and twelve.
