Boards For Boarders

B4B is a  FFSP organization chartered with giving all kids a chance to have their very own skateboard which they normally could not afford. We do this through donations of old skateboards that are refurbished or donations of new skateboards and equipment. B4B is committed to providing equipment  and youth mentoring.

Build Character Through Building Boards

The Why

Although FFSP has a focus on keeping our current skate park operational and safe, as well as the continued pursuit of a much needed skate park expansion, we felt that we could have even more impact by giving directly back to our local youth. We decided this  would be in the form of a skateboard program that would deliver boards to those youth who would otherwise not be able to have a board. This would allow these kids to enjoy a healthy, active and engaging lifestyle that will build character and develop bonds that will last a lifetime.  

The How

B4B is an all volunteer program and we can only do this with the help of our community. We take any used skateboards and then we completely refurbish these boards so they  can be delivered to our local youth. We take each board and strip , sand and paint each one. Then the boards are equipped with new deck traction, trucks and wheels so they are as good and safe as a brand new board and ready to be cherished by a lucky recipient.  Your donations make this possible. Whether it is an old board you have laying around that we can re-purpose or a cash donation so we can complete the skateboard build we can not do this without a giving community.

The Promise CARD

For this board I promise!

To say we give out skateboards to local youth who otherwise could not have a board is true. But what is not true is that these boards are given totally free as they only go to those kids who are willing to sign  up to a promise. Every single skateboard comes with a Promise Card and although the promise is three  simple  items  they  are very important to our program.  Respect  Yourself,  Respect  Others,  and  Respect  our  Environment  &  Community.  It’s  that  simple!

Please Support Us

Your cash  contribution will enable us to support our mission of getting skateboards in the hands of our youth.  For  every  $50  donated  we  can  build  a  complete  skateboard.  We are very grateful for your generosity.

Donate Used Skateboards or Skate Equipment?

We would  love  to  take  anything  skate  related off  your  hands  for  our  program. You  would  be  surprised  how  much  goes  to  waste  that  we  can  repurpose  for  B4B.  So  you got  old  boards,  helmets, pads ,etc  we  would  be  glad  to  take  them  off  your  hands  and  put  them  to  good  use.  Your  contribution  is  so very  much  appreciated,  The  FFSP  Board
