STOKED
An old pal Akiko sent me an email last week about the work that she's doing for a charity called Stoked. It's an organization that pairs mentors with at-risk youth to help them become "Successful Teens with Opportunity, Knowledge, Experience, and Determination" through action sports. It reminded me of Girls on the Run, except with a slightly older demographic and the program is open to both guys and girls.
So after a successful summer learning how to skateboard, Akiko and her mentee Jessica are now embarking on snowboarding this winter. They just need to raise $350 more to make it there (as of this morning). And that's where you guys can help. Check out their page on Active.com to learn how you can contribute.
Thanks guys.
