Surfer’s Path Green Wave Award Nomination!! 19 Sep 2007

The Bukit Lawang Trust has been nominated for a Green Wave Award by the Surfer’s Path magazine. Under the category "Surf Related Nonprofit Companies" the Bukit Lawang Trust has been nominated. We’re very honoured as the other organisations in this category do such fantastic work, such as LEAP, Surfers against Sewage and the Eden Project as do all the other nominees. The Green Wave Award if for excellence and achievement in promoting sustainability and environmental consciousness in the surfing world. We hope to continue our work in Nias with our "Clean the Beach" days and building a well, pump and water pipes to the villages of Hillisalo’o and Hillifatima in 2008, and completing the health clinic in Bukit Lawang with outdoor buildings for community projects which will be used for education about waste management, sanitary disposal and health promotion. Thanks Surfer’s Path!
