Built To Play Skatepark Program – Tony Hawk Foundation

Two of the nation’s most prominent advocates for youth have joined together to address the need for more public skateparks. The Tony Hawk Foundation has partnered with the Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. Foundation to promote the creation of free, public skateparks in the 16 counties of Southeast Michigan and Western New York served by RCWJRF.

With matching-grant funds of up to $250,000, the Built to Play Skatepark Program supports community groups and municipal entities seeking to create free, public skateparks that serve low-income communities. Built to Play Skatepark Grants also include an additional $50,000 to fund processes and design features that lessen the environmental impact of the skatepark. The Built to Play Skatepark Program also provides advisory services and advocacy training to assist groups in organizing and managing their efforts.
