Surfboard Trading Co. & IWS have teamed up to help raise funds for Tommy and Dani to help rebuild their home that was destroyed in a house fire. 

Enter to Win! 

Pick the surfboard of your dreams and help two of our own rebuild.

When Surfboard Trading Co. founder Brandon Kennedy heard about Tommy and Dani losing their home, he immediately reached out to collaborate on a raffle to raise money for their family. While we were thanking Brandon for jumping in so quickly, he shared that Tommy was the very first person to give his boards a chance — and that IWS was the first surf shop to carry them. Fast forward a few years and 55 retail locations later, and Brandon now has a permanent space in the @iwsboardloft. Today, he’s showing up for our family when they need it most.

Every ticket purchased helps Tommy, Dani, Zoe, and Milo get one step closer to rebuilding their home and their lives. 

What can you win?

  • A Surfboard Trading Co. surfboard of your choice — yes, you get to pick your dream board.

  •  All your essential surfboard travel accessories (board bag, leash, traction pad, board straps)

  • A pair of Oakley sunglasses

  • One of everything from Freaks of Nature Sunscreen (shoutout Kelly Slater)

  • A $200 IWS gift card, plus an IWS shirt, hat, and towel

  • A basket packed with epic gear from our favorite brands and gift cards to your favorite local restaurants

Tommy and Dani have always been part of the IWS family. Tommy has worked with us for over 15 years, doing just about every job imaginable — from sweeping the parking lot for store credit, to running surf camps, putting in 15-hour days during COVID, managing our buying team, and even inspiring local kids at multiple career days. It was here at IWS that Tommy met Dani, making their bond with our team even deeper.

Dani went on to work with Red Bull marketing and has played a huge role in helping us host epic events that give back to our community and keep our team stoked.

Now, it’s our turn to be there for them. Please share their story, and if you have the means, consider contributing to their GoFundMe to help them rebuild. Every bit of support makes a difference.
