Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Recreation & Sports, Sports
Mission: Riders Athletic Development Foundation is a nonprofit organization that provides youth with the opportunities to achieve their highest potential through board sports. The foundation provides scholarships to young athletes according to financial need, academic achievement, athletic skill and desire. Through fundraising events, sponsorship, web-based resources, and more, the Foundation also partners with like-minded charitable organizations to raise and donate funds to benefit the growth and development of youth board sports. The foundation was founded on the idea that all aspiring athletes deserve the same chance to achieve their dreams and that the key to success starts with the opportunity to succeed.
Results: Throughout the year, Riders Athletic Development Foundation will hold board sports contests to assist in our financial goal of awarding scholarships. This year is our 4th annual Big Bear Street Skate Contest on Sept. 20th 2015. https://www.facebook.com/events/821640457885349/ https://www.facebook.com/ridersathleticdevelopment?fref=ts
Target demographics: ABOUT US Riders Athletic Development Foundation was founded on the idea that all aspiring athletes deserve the same chance to achieve their dreams and that the key to success starts with the opportunity to succeed. We believe that academics and athletics go hand in hand, therefore, we require our scholarship recipients to hold a 3.0 GPA or higher. We believe that hard work shows in all you do, from school to sport, from home to community. We want to give back to help kids that strive to be the best they can be in all aspects of life. We want to help them help themselves, and see them help others!
Direct beneficiaries per year: As many as we can possibly help based on the number of applicants we get. This past April we helped our first scholarship recipient get to camp Windell's!
Geographic areas served: The Gardner Family Chase, Holly, Drayden and Talon "We created this foundation because we personally know the financial struggles involved with youth board sports. To be able to compete in the world's most elite board sports contests, we have had to make sacrifices numerous times to be able to travel, pay for coaching, and contest fees. We are extremely thankful to everyone who has helped make the dreams of our two boys possible! Without sponsorships, scholarships, and donations, they probably would not have been able to have lived the blessed sports lives that they have thus far. We would love to be able to help more families realize their athletic dreams and goals! This is why we created Riders Athletic Development Foundation. It's R.A.D.!"
Programs: By working in conjuction with like-minded charitable organizations through special events, sponsorship programs, web-based resources, and more, we are able to raise and donate funds to benefit and enrich the lives of amateur youth board sports athletes.
