  • Safe Spot Skate Spot Program, which seeks to create safe and legal havens for skaters across the country through the Rob Dyrdek Foundation.  Its main goal is to t assist municipalities municipalities with the design, development and construction of skate plazas that maintain the integrity of terrain occurring naturally in urban environments, and where the sport of skateboarding in its purest form is encouraged rather than discouraged.
  • Provide communities with safe, and legal skate plazas to skate • Increase and encourage the active engagement of people in the sport of skateboarding • Promote healthy and sustainable communities through exercise via skateboarding • Design, develop and construct Skate Plazas in municipalities throughout the world

  • he Rob Dyrdek Foundation’s Sk8 4 Life Program seeks to promote and encourage the sport of skateboarding by providing free skateboards to organizations
  • has a need for and the ability to distribute free skateboards that are provided by our Foundation
  • The Sk8 4 Life Program seeks to create and maintain healthy and sustainable communities by providing youth with free skateboards to both exercise and stay physically and mentally fit.
  • Skateboard Giveaway- The Rob Dyrdek Foundation has partnered with Skate Pass to provide schools and 501(c) 3 organizations whose targeted demographic has a need for and the ability to distribute free skateboards. (i.e. Boys and Girls Club, Elementary and Middle Schools)
  • HOW TO GET INVOLVED These are many of the same tactics that have worked to get skate parks built across the US. The important thing to remember: you don’t want a skate park, you want a Skate Plaza. Stick to your guns, and remember to educate as many people as possible about the Skate Plaza concept. 1. Organize a group of skaters—the larger the better. 2. Talk to your local skate shop and see if they’ll help you organize and have meetings in their shop. If you’re under 18, you’ll probably need an adult to help. Good sources are a local skate shop owner or a parent. 3. Start a petition. It’s always good to hit your city with big numbers to let them know there’s a huge demand that’s not being met. Take petition forms to your local skate shops and ask the managers if you can leave them for people to sign. Pick them up in about two or three weeks
  • Take petitions to your schools. Take them to local skate parks and skate spots. There’s a good chance that most skaters already see the need for a Skate Plaza. If they don’t, you can explain it this way: “Want a Love Park here?” That should get their attention and explain the idea. Have your friends and family help you by taking the petitions to work.

  • Cash gifts: The most convenient way to give to CRI.  You can donate online securely or by phone with your credit card, or you can mail a check to us made payable to "Cancer Research Institute." Memorial & tribute gifts: Donating to cancer research in memory of a loved one, in support of another's courageous battle with cancer, or in honor of any occasion can be a thoughtful and appropriate way to remember others. Employer matching gifts: Employer matching gift programs can increase your giving to CRI by double or more. Our convenient employer MatchFinder will allow you to see if your employer matches your charitable donations. Securities donations: Gifts of stocks, bonds, and other securities can be of significant benefit to our programs while also providing you tax advantages. Car and other vehicle donations: Donate an old car or vehicle (boat, campers, etc.).  We'll arrange to have your vehicle picked up, and the proceeds from the sale of your used vehicle will benefit our research programs. Planned giving options: Naming CRI in your will or estate plans, including charitable annuities and trusts as well as life insurance and retirement plan gifts, can offer both you and CRI significant financial advantages. Payroll deduction: Employees can provide ongoing support through regular payroll deductions, especially if their companies provide matching gifts.

  • Protection of the Environment Well-managed agricultural land supplies important non-market goods and services for our environment. Farm and ranch lands provide food and cover for wildlife, help control flooding, protect wetlands and watersheds and maintain air quality. They can absorb and filter wastewater and provide groundwater recharge. New energy crops even have the potential to replace fossil fuels.
  • America's Agricultural Land Is at Risk Every minute of every day, we have been losing more than an acre of agricultural land to development. Why? Farm and ranch land is desirable for building because it tends to be flat, well drained and affordable. And the rapid rate of agricultural land converted to development is unnecessary—over the past 20 years, the average acreage per person for new housing almost doubled—with our best agricultural soils being developed the fastest.
