    Follow: The Surfrider Foundation



    I mentioned
    on Twitter that I'm reading Beth Katner (@kanter) and Allison Fine's (@afine) book, The Networked Nonprofit. I am occasionally posting good quotes and info from the book on Twitter. To continue that theme, I bring you one of the networked nonprofits highlighted in the book - The Surfrider Foundation - as the latest and greatest #FollowOfTheWeek:


    Twitter: @Surfrider
    Name: The Surfrider Foundation
    Web: www.surfrider.org
    Bio: The Surfrider Foundation is a non-profit, grassroots environmental organization dedicated to protection and enjoyment of our world's oceans, waves and beaches. Founded in 1984 by a handful of surfers in Malibu, California, the organization has grown to over 50,000 activists and 100 chapters across world.
    Followers: 15,575 + you!
    Why Follow? Surfrider is empowering its members and chapters to do incredible work to preserve the oceans and beaches many of us love to visit. Though "surf" is in the name, their efforts are not restricted to surfers and surfing interests.
