Testimonials

Being a part of the Wahine Project gave me opportunities that I never believed possible. Who would have thought that a young, brown girl from East Salinas would be given the chance to surf? Definitely not me. As a child, I always thought that surfing was a sport only people in movies would participate in, it wasn’t something I ever saw people of color doing, it wasn’t a reality for me. You have changed my life, for that I will always be grateful. Thanks for everything! -Daisy, Alisal Highschool
