About Groundswell Aid

Groundswell Aid is a non-profit organization founded by Roy Harley. Surfers travel to all corners of the globe in search of firing, uncrowded surf. This pursuit brings surfers face to face with poverty often overlooked or not seen by other tourists. This is where Groundswell Aid steps in. Our heart is to empower and equip local communities and their leaders where poverty and surfing intersect. Groundswell Aid operates in South Africa, El Salvador, Mauritius, Chile, Indonesia, Mexico and Brazil.

How we help
Surf Communities Globally

Mobilizing a groundswell of positive change in surfing communities. Groundswell Aid partners with local grassroots projects, leveraging its network to raise funds and support these initiatives, aiming to equip, empower, and meet their practical resource needs.

Project Leaders Speak Out

  • Rehgert van Zyl
    Aleph Surf Int.

    Groundswell Aid connected one of our students with Get Smart Education for a university scholarship that helped get her engineering degree, we received boards from Degree 33 Surfboards for Aleph Baja and we had joint missions in fundraising and on the ground response to two Cyclone Disasters that hit Mozambique in 2019 and 2021.

  • Salvador Castellanos
    La Red, El Salvador

    We are extremely grateful to GSA. In times of greatest need they have been with us: the Covid pandemic, the tropical storms of 2020, the equipment for the Sharing Waves project. Knowing that we have brothers and sisters all over the world who share a heart and a call for those in need makes us feel part of a divine community and workers in the construction of a wonderful kingdom.

  • Willem van Deventer
    South Beach Stoke, South Africa

    Tremendous support from Groundswell, financial, surfing aids, and at the worst time enough funding to keep at least 25 families alive supplying food etc.

  • Andre Holl
    Hope House, Mauritius

    We appreciate the ongoing relationship with Groundswell Aid. It has given us a platform for sales of some of our surf products as well as receiving much-appreciated donations of leashes, wax, and other surf equipment.

  • Matt Thistlewaite
    Mercy Huts, Rote Island, Indonisia

    It has been great being connected with the Groundswell Aid community . GSA has helped spread our reach with some urgent needs that have popped up in the past.
