Best Day Foundation Beach Day

May 20, 2018 @ 9:00 am PDT

The Best Day Foundation hosts its sixth annual Santa Barbara event, providing kids with special needs a fun-filled day at the beach, while also giving parents and caregivers a much needed break. The Best Day Foundation focuses on the positive attributes of what children and young adults who live with special needs are capable of doing, with the help of certified lifeguards, registered nurses and adaptive equipment. Kids, many for the first time, experience surfing, stand up paddle board, boogie boards, kayak and more.

High school students and adults are encouraged to volunteer to assist kids and young adults, ages 4-24, with autism, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, blindness, cancer, and other physical and developmental challenges to simply enjoy a day at the beach.

Volunteers are needed both in and out of the water, and while some require special skills, others simply require an open mind and the desire to have fun. One of the most popular opportunities is being a beach buddy, where volunteers are paired with kids to help them make the most of their day. Help is also needed with set-up, registration, food service, and event support. Event includes lunch.

Sponsors are Kiwanis Club, Blue Planet Eyewear, Kyle’s Kitchen and Handlebar Coffee Roasters.
