ROLLINBUCKEYEZ FOUNDATION

Description

General Information With the increasing epidemic of chronic childhood diseases, we provide community outreach programs in efforts of educating the youth on health related issues as a creative way of encouraging preventative care at an early age. These are hands on programs which allow the participants the exposure to interact with individuals who have been affected by these lifestyle diseases.
Health &Wellness: The RollinBuckeyez Foundation supports initiatives that encourage individuals to maintain a healthy lifestyle. RBF conducts annual skate camps for at-risk youth and ongoing workshops to teach the art of roller skating as a fun alternative to traditional exercise. As result, participants have the opportunity to showcase their talents at local community events focused on health related issues such as the annual Breast Cancer Walk, and the Lifebanc Gift of Life Walk and Run.

Mentoring: The goal of our mentoring program is to change the lives of at risk youth by providing alternative activities to street life. We focus on the following key developmental areas:

Leadership Skills & Sportsmanship Self Esteem & Etiquette
Decision Making Relationship & Team Building
