Ocean Beach Surf and Skate and
The Pearl Hotel are joining forces to host a special fundraising event and movie premiere of
Calling on Others: Bali, Indonesia on Tuesday, February 22, 2011. The event will be a special feature for the monthly surf movie event, Surf on the Silver Screen, and will kick off at 7 p.m. at The Pearl Hotel.
Calling on Others is a film project headed by San Diego natives, Scott LeDuc and Andrew Matthews that aims to raise money for underprivileged surfers to continue their education. The project and scholarship fund idea was inspired during a six-week trip LeDuc and Matthews took to Bali, Indonesia in 2009. What began as a surfing expedition quickly became much more when they met four, local talented surfers whose aspirations to stay in school seemed a far-fetched dream. Together, LeDuc and Matthews created the short film,
Calling on Others: Bali, Indonesia, which follows the lives of these four boys, in hopes to raise money so that their dream to further their education can become a reality.
In addition to the movie premiere and to aid in fundraising efforts, this event will feature a large raffle with extra-special prizes from:

Ocean Experience Surf School,
The Pearl Hotel,
