"..foster lasting improvements in society, with an emphasis on supporting and empowering youth. Through special events, grants, and technical assistance, the Foundation supports recreational programs with a focus on the creation of public skateboard parks in low-income communities. The Foundation favors programs that clearly demonstrate that funds received will produce tangible, ongoing, positive results. "
The foundation offers grants for skateboard park programs. On their website they stress that the requests for grant money, which max out at 25,000 dollars, far outweigh the funds available. Teachers or students interested in building a skate park in a low-income neighborhood should read through the grant application information. Your school could be the perfect place to organize grass roots support for a new skateboard park. Maybe Tony will name it after you!
