Sleeping on the streets or in a homeless shelter!

In 2018 Surfing The Nations sent a small team led by STN founder Tom Bauer to Utah with the purpose of impacting and giving back to the people of downtown Salt Lake City. They did this while being homeless, sleeping on the streets, or in homeless shelters having no money in their pockets to buy food. After a successful trip in 2018, Tom has committed to making this trip happen for the next 10 years!
