Where your gift goes

The beach. Trash and debris wash in on tides and storms and get hauled out in bags. Ropes go up around nesting dunes and need fixing; signs need replacing. None of it is dramatic. It is constant, and it is what keeps a launch welcome.

The chapter. A beach without organizers is just a beach. Chapters are the people who know the tide table, post the wind call, run the cleanup, teach the newcomer where not to launch, and pick up the phone when something goes wrong.

How it is built. The technology behind the chapter sites is donated by ITHOS, a platform built by riders in West Palm Beach. Gifts here do not fund ITHOS product development.

The books. Every month we publish a one-page report: what came in, fees, what was spent, and what we still owe in benefits.

The budget

Goal $30,000. Dollar allocations are published as actual costs land, and reported against monthly.

Access and advocacy

The main line. Holding each chapter's relationship with its park or county, and professional lobbying when a spot comes under threat.

Stewardship

Cleanup days, launch care, signage, and dune and mangrove protection.

Community certification

Sponsored certification weekends. Anyone who signs up and shows up leaves certified as an independent rider, free.

Instructor certification

Complimentary instructor certification for qualifying stewards and members who want to teach at their chapter.

Chapter formation

Filing, insurance and the basic setup each chapter needs.

Administration

The unglamorous part, reported in full.

Questions

Do I have to give to be a member?

No. Membership in the WWS community is free. Giving adds recognition and the benefits listed for each level.

How do my benefits switch on?

Choose your level and chapter, then pay securely here by card. Your benefits switch on as soon as the payment clears, and you get a private link to your gift. Chapter sponsorships are confirmed by a short written agreement instead.

Can I stay anonymous?

Yes. Choose "Keep my name private" and nothing about you is published. We still need your name and email privately to deliver benefits. A gift with no way to identify the giver counts as general support.

What if a capped level sells out after I give?

We tell you straight away and offer the next level that is available or a refund path. We never take a slot that does not exist.

Is this a monthly charge?

No. Every level is a one-time gift.

Where does the money go?

To the budget lines below, reported every month in a one-page spend report with what came in, fees, what was spent and what remains owed in benefits.
