Tony Hawk Foundation Provides Grants for Skateparks
The Tony Hawk Foundation is dedicated to funding the construction of new, quality skateboard parks located in low-income communities throughout the United States. The Foundation primarily considers projects that can demonstrate a strong grassroots commitment, particularly in the form of planning and fundraising by local skateboarders and other community groups. Priority is given to projects that are designed and built by qualified and experienced skateboard park contractors and include local skaters in the design process. Requests are reviewed two times per year; the upcoming application deadline is July 2, 2012. Visit the Foundation’s website to review the grant criteria and submit an online application.
