Everybody gets a turn.
TSG Community Projects is the nonprofit side of The Skate Gym in Leander, Texas. We're opening skateboarding up to everyone, whatever their budget, body or ability.
Free open skate
Free boards
Free workshops
We use skateboarding to build stronger bodies, real friendships and a community where everybody gets a turn.
Any budget, any body type, any skill level. Adaptive skaters and skaters with visual impairments included, always.
What your support pays for
Every gift turns into time on a board for someone who wouldn't get it otherwise.
Free open skate
Donations open the park to the public at no cost during open skate hours. Just show up and ride.
Boards and gear for people who need them
We give away skateboards and safety gear so the price of a setup never decides who gets to skate.
Free workshops
Classes on skateboarding and fitness, free and open to every age, skill level and body type.
A safer, better park
Upgrades to ramps and surfaces so skaters can progress safely, from a first push to a first drop-in.
Community art projects
Art that brings skaters and neighbors together to make something for the park and for Leander.
How the park got built
The Skate Gym started as a skate school and shop with no loans, no grants and no big savings. While the permits crawled along, skaters showed up with donated ramps, supplies, cash, labor and coaching.
That crew is why the park exists. After two years of paperwork, TSG Community Projects is now its own nonprofit, so we can take what they started to the people who need it most. Donations are tax-deductible.
