Join Zephyr Surf Support!

As many of you may know, Zephyr skate team co-founder and Zephyr surfboards owner Jeff Ho’s wife Babette was recently diagnosed with late stage cancer. While this is always a dreaded diagnosis, with modern medical advances this is a disease that can now be fought and beaten.

Jeff and Babette

Fighting cancer creates serious medical expenses and Jeff and Babette could use the help and support of the Venice community right now to assist in fighting the fight.

Friends of Jeff and Babette have set up a support page at myevent.com where you can donate and help them out during this trying time! Every little bit counts no matter how big or small!

Click here to donate and thank you all in advance for your contributions!
