MISSION STATEMENT >>>The Mauli Ola Foundation exists to introduce surfing as a natural treatment to people with genetic disorders. Since 2007 we have concentrated on the amazing connection between Surfing and Cystic Fibrosis. We have taken nearly 400 CF Patients Surfing at over 40 MOF Surf Experience Days. In 2011 we look to expand our program to help patients affected with Cancer and Alpha 1 Antitypsin. We appreciate your interest and would love for you to join the Mauli Ola Foundation Ohana by becoming a member and help us with our mission to help people with genetic disorders through Surfing.Aloha, James Dunlop |
SURF EXPERIENCE DAYS FOR THE KIDS >>>Surf Experience Days (MOF) were created to get kids who have cystic fibrosis out into the ocean water (which is high in saline) and experience what natural therapies can do for their lungs. The exercise and fun they get from these events is truly fantastic. What is even more amazing, kids who have cystic fibrosis respond very well to the salt water environment. The saline in the air and water breaks down the congestion that is in their lungs. This congestion is what causes them to go to hospitals constantly and leads them to have to take lots of medication on daily basis. With salt water treatments, their hospital visits are cut down in half, leading to a healthier and more fulfilling life with fun activities. Please see these articles that describe the saline treatments: |

"Hello my name is Kalani Robb and I'm from the north shore of Oahu. I've been a professional surfer just about all my life and have traveled the world surfing on the world championship tour for the past 15 years. The way I came about meeting the Mauli Ola team was by helping many charities for the past 5 years since I've been retired off the world tour..."
"... like my drive to be the best and do my best on the pro tour, I feel the same drive and commitment to save lives and help people however I can. My aim is to influence people, like I was. I hope to spread awareness and positive energy and have fun as we change as many peoples lives as possible for the better. We love what we do at Mauli Ola!!! I encourage everyone to see what all the things pro surfers, UFC fighters, genetic scientists, CF patients,and some of the best doctors in the world do together when we hangout and share ideas!!!" "Very interesting very exciting very fun:)" Director of Community Outreach: Kalani Robb |
