Roller Skating Foundation

Did you know that today is ? Over the past 13 years, Giving Tuesday has grown into a global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.

The Roller Skating Foundation is a 501(c)3 that was created to promote physical fitness, provide scholarships and grants, promote family values, safety, and risk management programs, and utilize donations to support the advancement of the roller skating industry.

Every year, we provide up to $18k in grants to schools and up to $13k to roller skating athletes and students entering college. Your donations help to provide opportunities to educators and students throughout the country.
