We’re honored to be paddling in this year’s Keiki Paddle to support Avery Scott—a warm-hearted 4-year-old from Santa Barbara who’s been through more than most of us can imagine.

In April 2024, Avery was diagnosed with a large brain tumor that required emergency surgery, followed by intensive chemotherapy and long hospital stays. He lost his ability to speak, walk, and eat—but never lost his spirit. After nearly a year in the hospital, Avery is now home, relearning to walk, regaining his strength, and bringing joy to everyone around him.

The Keiki Paddle is our way of showing Avery and his family they’re not alone. On July 19th, we’re joining other kids and families to paddle nearly 10 miles down the Santa Barbara coastline to support Avery—and we need your help.

Here’s how you can support:

• Donate: Every contribution, big or small, helps us reach our goal and supports Avery’s ongoing recovery.

• Share: Please pass this page along to friends and family. The more people who know, the more we can do together.

Thank you for being part of this. Your support means so much to us.
