  • 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.

  • If you leave your pup outdoors, whether you are there or not, he or she could suffer the effects of too much heat faster than a human. Keep your dog inside where it can stay cool. If you must take your dog out into the heat, bring along a spray bottle to cool him/her down, make sure you have plenty of water, and try to stay in the shade when possible.

  • Since 1980, the Make-A-Wish Foundation® has enriched the lives of children with life-threatening medical conditions through its wish-granting work. The Foundation's mission reflects the life-changing impact that a Make-A-Wish® experience has on children, families, referral sources, donors, sponsors and entire communities. The Make-A-Wish Foundation was founded in 1980 after a little boy named Chris Greicius realized his heartfelt wish to become a police officer. Since its humble beginnings, the organization has blossomed into a worldwide phenomenon, reaching more than 250,000 children around the world. Although it has become one of the world's most well-known charities, the Make-A-Wish Foundation has maintained the grassroots fulfillment of its mission. A network of nearly 25,000 volunteers enable the Make-A-Wish Foundation to serve children with life-threatening medical conditions. Volunteers serve as wish granters, fundraisers, special events assistants and in numerous other capacities. As the Foundation continues to mature, its mission will remain steadfast. Wish children of the past, present and future will have an opportunity to share the power of a wish®.
