Tony Hawk & Friends Raise $1 Million For Charity

November 11th, 2008

Pro-skateboarder Tony Hawk and his celebrity friends, including Anthony Kiedis from the Red Hot Chili Peppers, David Spade, Bam Margera and Perry Ferrell, helped raise over $1 million for the Tony Hawk Foundation.

The 5th annual Acitivision Presents Stand Up for Skateparks event was staged in Beverly Hills on Sunday (November 9) with a mission to bring free, quality skateparks to low-income communities in America.

“It doesn’t take long for cities to realize that their modest skateparks get more use than the local tennis courts or baseball fields,” Hawk says in a statement on his website.

“We are proud to be a part of this process of enlightenment.”
