Grant Name: Skatepark Grants

Funded By: Tony Hawk Foundation

Description: The primary mission of the Tony Hawk Foundation is to promote high-quality, public skateparks in low-income areas throughout the United States. While we realize that not every area can afford to build big, expensive skateparks, we feel strongly that public skateparks should be designed and constructed by experienced contractors. We also believe that local officials should treat public skateparks the same way they treat public basketball courts or tennis courts, meaning that anyone may show up and use them anytime, unsupervised. The applicant must be a 501(c)(3) public charity or a state or local agency (including public school systems or public projects).
