Best Day Foundation

Best Day helps children with special needs build confidence and self-esteem through safe, fun, adventure activities like surfing, bodyboarding, kayaking, snow sports, and more, in creating special days for special children with Autism, Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Blindness, Cancer, Spinal Cord Injuries, and other physical & developmental

Last Saturday was another "best day" for the children. These are extremely disabled kids who likely would never get a chance to surf, wave ride, kayak, etc, in a safe and professional environment, filled with eager, loving volunteers. There was a big turnout of special needs kids from all over several counties, as well as at least a hundred volunteers/organizers.

The radiance and smiles from those children said it all and it was non-stop. Talk about soaring hearts... I didn't see one scowl or frown all day at the beach. It was amazing. And it proves to me that when such a disparate group of people come together for the purpose of helping those unable to help themselves, love leads the way and the day.
