Ventana Surfboards & Supplies is committed to being the most environmentally responsible surf company on the planet. We donate at least 5% of our profits to ocean conservation, and we're proud to offer the Ventana Ocean Conservation Scholarship to stay true to that mission.

We want to help bright and meritorious students who care about the conservation of our oceans and surf breaks. We do not want any deserving student to discontinue their studies because of financial constraints. This is an annual award of at least $3000 along with a gift of Ventana eco apparel. The award is given annually to a deserving and motivated applicant as determined by the Ventana co-founders after reading application and essay submissions.

Students must be California-based and have completed at least one year of university or college.

Applications will be accepted until July 15 of each year with the winner announced every August 15.

Ventana will request a photo of the winner and video of themselves explaining how they plan to use the scholarship money. The video and photo may be used on social media.

Thank you for your commitment to ocean conservation!

See you in the water,
