Skatepark of Tampa’s Boards for Bro program is getting bigger every year. This December 20, 2008 they will be distributing 300 skateboards to Tampa, Florida’s low-income children, according to a story in on TampaBay.com.
Boards for Bros has provided skateboards to low-income children since 2006. Organizers get plenty of board donations. But the charity falls short on the amount of trucks, wheels and other hardware needed to make a skateboard complete. Ready-to-roll skateboards can cost up to $150.
But that’s where Chad Cardoza’s 99 Bottle of Beer On The Wall art show came it. He raised $2,000 to complete the skateboards. Nice work.
