Cruiser auction
“Our goal at Contributor is to develop a tight-knit network of non-profit organizations in Canada, which will serve as the distribution channel for getting skateboards out to the kids who need them most. Whether the community group works with youth at risk or underprivileged children, or perhaps even both, we firmly believe that these organizations have the best understanding of what’s happening on the ground, how to address it, and how positive activities like skateboarding can be a part of that overall solution.”
The boards have been customized by Chris Pastras, Chris Nieratko, Don Pendleton, Cody Hudson, Matt Irving, Andy Jenkins, Thomas Campbell, Jim Datz, Parra…the auction ends by the 25th of oct…
