ABOUT THE
FOUNDATION
Mission: to cultivate a better future by creating and conserving
access to music, art, and the outdoors.
About
As surfers, creators, and outdoorsmen we’ve seen first hand what happens when people pursue their passions. Confidence builds, a feeling of connection to ourselves, those around us and nature grows… The list goes on.
In 2024, The Levitate Foundation launched two new grant programs, ‘Passion Projects’ and ‘Varsity Arts’, to support those who are pursuing and sharing their passions in the arts, music, or the outdoors. Passion Project grants support creators and outdoorsmen who want to showcase their craft while inspiring others in their community to do the same, and to pursue passions of their own. Varsity grants, with its intentionally playful title, exist to support organizations and individuals who want to pass on their craft to the next generation through innovative coursework and intentional mentorship.
