PLEASURE POINT, CA — Island Stone, the California-based manufacturer of handcrafted stone and glass tile, hosted a team at the annual SurfAid Cup Santa Cruz, a fund-raising event that assists SurfAid, a non-profit that seeks to improve the lives of women and children in Indonesia, Mexico and Solomon Islands, the company announced.
The fifth annual SurfAid Cup Santa Cruz featured eight teams and raised $60,000 to support SurfAid’s Mother and Child Health programs, which work to build health centers, clean water sources and gardens, as well as to train health volunteers and midwives.
“Sharing the stoke of surfing with a great group of people while supporting an organization that’s having a profound impact on the long-term health of the people and communities that are part of the Island Stone’s extended family is a win for all,” said Nigel Eaton, CEO of Island Stone, which was founded in Indonesia and continues to have ties there.
