The Board Rescue program is a non-profit organization that partners with various members of the skateboard industry with a straight-forward and effective mission to supply skateboards and safety equipment to organizations that work with under-privileged and at risk youth. Board Rescue’s founder and lifelong skater, Gary Holl recently put together a video in conjunction with the teachers, parents, and students of the Cesar Chavez Elementary School in San Francisco, one of the program's many recipients, to highlight some of the program's features.
