In 2017, Justice Kwofie and his six brothers founded the Obibini Surf Club in Ghana, challenging gender-based beach restrictions and cultural fears of drowning. This initiative helped start a movement of empowering women by granting them rights and inspiring young girls to embrace surfing. The group's visionary stance brought a wave of change to Ghanaian beaches, promoting inclusivity, equal recreational opportunities for women, and freedom to pursue their interests, with the surf club boasting over ten active female members as a testament to their impactful mission.
