The Gift of Skateboarding
This week, Honey Skate Club received a generous donation of 20 skateboards from WeHero and their volunteer board building activity in collaboration with Skate Like a Girl.
We will be passing these boards out to underprivileged girls at an upcoming youth focused skateboarding event in late-March (more details will be announced soon)!
With this incredible donation, the volunteers included a handwritten note for the recipient of each board they built. I wanted to share some of the sweetest and most sincere messages of motivation, because we all could use a little reminders of encouragement as we progress in skateboarding.

“I don’t know of any girl skateboarders in Houston besides y’all,” reveals every single skater friend that I know of.
Now we know that this isn’t true: these girl skaters are around, they have just been… separated. Or disconnected from other local skaters. Or something I’ve heard before is that they don’t have (girl) friends to skate with.
