Philanthropy can be defined as a desire to promote the welfare of others for a specific cause, and no cause has touched our hearts here at Kona Surf Company quite like the charity of local baseball legend Matt Szczur.
On Friday, January 27, 2017, Be The Match Foundation will partner with The Andy Talley Bone Marrow Foundation to host the 2nd Annual Szcz The Day event to raise money for the fight against blood cancer.
Over 5 years ago, Matt unselfishly donated his bone marrow to someone on the other side of the world less fortunate than he. In response to Matt's selfless efforts and out of good faith to the cause, Kona Surf Company is proud to announce the donation of a brand new Kona Standup Paddleboard to be auctioned off for charity at Szcz The Day.
Proceeds from the event and silent auction will benefit The Andy Talley Bone Marrow Foundation and a local community member suffering from cancer.
"Cancer hits home for just about everybody today, especially living in such a small community like Wildwood," said owner and operator of Kona Surf Company Mike Sciarra. "Kona Surf Company and I are willing to do anything we can in our fight against cancer and in support of the Andy Talley Bone Marrow Foundation."
Tune into www.facebook.com/KonaSurfCo/ on Tuesday, January 24 at 11:00 a.m. for an exclusive Facebook Live interview with Matt Szczur and owner and operator of Kona Surf Company, Mike Sciarra!
