On June 4th, Billabong hosted their 2nd Design for Humanity charity event. The first event was an opportunity for Billabong to give back to a non-profit close to the heart of their industry.

This year Design for Humanity will donate to the Surfrider Foundation. Retailers, celebrities, artists, and the general public had the opportunity to make a difference in this event. This one night of celebrating is animated by a bikini fashion show, a live band and art exposition.

The Surfrider Foundation is a non-profit grassroots organization dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of our world’s oceans, waves and beaches. Founded in 1984 by a handful of visionary surfers in Malibu, California, the Surfrider Foundation now maintains over 50,000 members and 80 chapters worldwide.

The core activities and campaigns that the Surfrider Foundation uses to protect our oceans, waves and beaches fall into the categories of Clean Water, Beach Access, Beach Preservation and Protecting Special Places.
