Ocean Challenge of Southern California is a “501c(3)” nonprofit, community-based organization that provides prevention programs for “at-risk” youth in a diverse multi-ethnic, multi-racial and multi-cultural environment.

Ocean Challenge continually seeks to further develop and expand all of its programs and services and does not charge individual youth fees for participation. Support for all Ocean Challenge educational activities comes from individuals, clubs, organizations, foundations and corporations. Our dedicated and highly educated group of volunteers have committed their free time in support of the Ocean Challenge program so our “at-risk” youth can acquire an understanding and appreciation for the moral values we hopefully imbed in their minds for the remainder of their lives.

Ocean Challenge has developed a safe and adventurous environment for “at-risk” youth to enjoy ocean life and recreation while providing them with an opportunity to renew their hope and enthusiasm for the good in life that may have been numbed by the complexities and confusions in their daily lives…

Every child has the fundamental right to live life knowing that they can be whatever they want to be when they grow up. They have the basic human right to believe that no task is insurmountable.

Unfortunately, not every child is currently given the opportunity and reinforcement to believe this. iStandAbove seeks to change this enormous disservice to the youth of the world by using and teaching our three core values: leadership, teamwork, and creativity. Teaching these values will give the youth the tools they will need to grow up to become more confident individuals, to accomplish their short and long term life goals, and to be successfully contribute to the global community we live in.

iStandAbove will provide the youth with academic, sporting, and relief resources in order to unable them overcome obstacles that stand between them and the attainment of their goals. All projects and programs that iStandAbove provides are socially, economically, and politically sustainable. By utilizing all of these ideals, iStandAbove will help to give youth the tools they will need to change their lives and that of the generations to come for the better.?
