Unexpectedly! As long-time friends, we reconnected over a passion project to protect access to the beaches of 30A & Destin, Fla. Trudging through difficult break-ups, discovering ourselves, serving our community, and celebrating the beauty of our destination, we discovered a connection we never could have imagined. Given this gift, we're fueled by love and immense gratitude and are determined to pay it forward.

Our adventure day! It started with parasailing, flying 100 feet above the Gulf was exhilarating. Next stop, the local waterpark, riding the best slide 5 times! After lunch at the harbor, we visited the state park and skatedboarded down the boardwalk through the pristine dunes to the gorgeous white sand beaches. We swam in the warm Gulf waters and jumped in the waves. It was like the world melted away. It was a magical day.

We'd cover medical bills, travel & invest in our projects. We want to protect the environment, beautify our community and help provide meals & shelter to those in need. From building homes with Habitat for Humanity to creating an art in public spaces project for our town, to cleaning our beaches, these funds will help. We'd also launch Vacation Forward, a movement that promotes vacation activities that benefit the local community, such as picking up trash & buying locally-made products.
