Push Skateboards Partners with 'Make Life Skate Life' to Build Skateparks in Under-Served Communities

The folks at Push skateboards have teamed up with Make Life Skate Life—a non-profit that constructs skateparks in underserved communities around the world—on a variety of new pre-built complete boards, and a portion of the proceeds from each Push skateboard will help fund construction of these skateparks.

"Teaming up with Make Life Skate Life, a nonprofit committed to constructing skateparks in marginalized communities globally, we're proud to contribute a portion of proceeds from every sale towards the creation of these vital spaces," Push mentions on their website. "Our graphics are thoughtfully crafted to resonate with the spirit of each unique skatepark, fostering a connection that transcends borders."

Beyond building these safe places for youth in under-served communities to skate, Push is also using a portion of proceeds to help with a handful of mental health initiatives:

"We will also use a portion of Push proceeds to ensure that our Sidewalk riders and employees have 24/7 access to a mental health professional. To help establish an industry standard for recognizing the signs of a crisis, we will develop mental health toolkits to guide shop owners, team managers and anyone else who may benefit. In turn, our guest pros and artists are given the opportunity to donate to the skate charity or DIY park of their choice. We hope that creating a solid foundation for new skaters today will lead to a healthy and sustainable future for the skateboarders of tomorrow."

Long story short, this is a great example of rad people doing rad things in the name of skateboarding. The completes will be available at skate shops and distributions across the globe, and Push tells us, "We think this is the best option for core shops as they can build the kit with what we all hope is lifelong customer."
