Wow that is amazing, reaching people where they are can have the biggest impact. What side of town were you all located.

We're actually based out of California but we do public-private partnerships while operating and programming skateboard parks around the country. We were partnered with the city of Orlando for several years and ran programming out of one of their parks. As we do that we also create partnerships with local organizations and other groups. The idea is to give kids positive things to do besides just hanging out. Currently, we're also working with accessibility groups too and holding events and competitions for all kids including a growing number in wheelchairs and with prosthetics. It's been a very rewarding experience.
That is truly inspiring and as creative as it gets. We try to help out in our local community and if there is anything we can do to help do let us know.
