Board drive: Southeast Queensland

Boards for kids who'd surf anyway.

Walk down any beach here and you'll see kids on old, battered boards with one fin, surfing like it's the best thing in the world. We're finding them better boards, and right now we're collecting them on the Sunshine Coast, in Brisbane and on the Gold Coast.

Boards wanted on the Sunshine Coast, in Brisbane and on the Gold Coast.

We're running a board drive through friends and family who live in Southeast Queensland. If you have a used surfboard in decent shape, you can donate it, or sell it to us at a decent price, and it goes to a kid in the Philippines who'd surf anyway.
There's a deadline. Air freighting boards is exceptionally expensive, so we're sending them by sea freight, and we want the drive wrapped up by the end of October. If you can help, please reach out soon.

Subject: Give back boards, Southeast Queensland

Why we do it

We see kids here on boards as brown as a tree, held together by one fin and a lot of hope. They're out in the water anyway, and some of them are properly good. What they don't have is the gear. Giving back to these kids is a big part of why My Way Electrolytes exists.
How it works

Three simple steps.

1

Find the boards

We're collecting used surfboards in Australia, boards that still have plenty of waves left in them.
2

Get them here

We ship them to the Philippines by sea freight, aiming to have them here in time for Christmas.
3

Hand them over

We give them to the kids here in person, so every board goes to someone who'll use it.

Got a board to give?

If you have a used surfboard in decent shape and you'd like it to go to a kid here, get in touch. Tell us where you are and what you've got, and we'll tell you what happens next. We'll make sure it gets handed out to the kids here.

The same idea runs through the brand.

There are athletes here who are really good and have never had the opportunity. As My Way Electrolytes ambassadors they earn money by sharing the product, and they get exposure. This brand is about them, and the people carrying it forward.
