Betties360 is a registered non-profit organization whose mission is
to inspire well-being in women and girls through action sports and
outdoor adventures. The organization was founded in 2004 and—to
date—has changed the lives of nearly 200 women and girls.
“Betty” is a nickname given to women who participate in
sports and endeavors with the same confidence and passion as men. Traditionally coined by female surfers who could ride the waves
alongside their male counterparts, it now speaks to strong-willed,
talented women who seek a 360-degree approach to life and
opportunities. This is where Betties360 gets its name. To read more about this organization in IN/UR online magazine, follow this link.
