Kip Moore partnered with legendary pro skater, Tony Hawk, to bring the one of a kind charitable event, benefitting hurricane survivors and creation of public skateparks. Each has their own non profit organization; Kips Kids Fund and Tony Hawk Foundation.
Kips Kids Fund provides alternative outlets for youth to engage in healthy habits and physical activities like skateboarding, in addition to the traditional sports offerings where they live, according to Kip Moore’s official website.
“Tony Hawk Foundation has sought to foster lasting improvements in society, with an emphasis on supporting and empowering youth. Through special events, grants, and technical assistance, the Foundation supports recreational programs focusing on the creation of public skateboard parks in low-income communities, and other causes in the U.S. and overseas. The Foundation favors projects that have strong community involvement, grassroots fundraising, and a base of support from the skaters, parents, law enforcement, and local leaders.”
