We apparently live in caring times as more and more professional snowboarders are using their notoriety to help raise money for charitable causes, according to a Jason Blevins story in the Denver Post.
Steve Fisher promotes prostate cancer awareness, Andreas Wiig helps out a Boys and Girls Club in California; Kelly Clark set up a scholarship program for snowboarders who hope to attend a mountain school; Hannah Teter is supporting a small African village; and Gretchen Bleiler donates money for global-warming education and products made of recycled and recyclable materials.
And what is X Games slayer Shaun White doing to give back? We don’t know because it wasn’t mentioned in this story.
