SKATE UNIT

Our Skate Program was originally designed for at risk youth that were involved in gang activity. When we reached out to members of those communities—the youth declined. So we opened up our resources to kids who wanted help—which led us to a 14 year old boy whose family we helped in the grocery program. We got him a complete skateboard and proceeded with skate mentors to reach him to skate. Within one year this project evolved into a dozen brands and companies, pro skaters and donations coming in to host quarterly skate events in south central. The skate events have hot food, merchandise and contests!
