About Harold Hunter Foundation
We believe that many of the very qualities, abilities and characteristics that draw kids to skateboarding and make them talented as riders can also make them vulnerable to a variety of pitfalls. NYC skateboarders, in particular, have unique needs that are not adequately served by traditional organizations and institutions, thereby hindering the optimal development of their talent and potential in all aspects of life.
We seek to fill this void by providing services that are specifically and creatively tailored to the needs of skateboarders – from the child who is picking up a board for the first time, to the kid who wants to do nothing but skateboard, to the rising Flow or Am rider trying to break into the industry, the professional living his or her dream, the former professional trying to transition into a new career, and the young entrepreneur starting an independent skate business.
We believe that skateboarding offers enormous life lessons that enriched Harold’s life and provided him with unseen opportunities to experience the world in a way that kids from his background rarely do. We wholeheartedly believe that skateboarding is a rich culture and community that has the potential to save lives.
