Tony Hawk is everywhere. This past Thursday he was a guest on Voice Of America (VOA), a radio show that helps teach international audiences English, discussing his foundation.

According to VOA:

The foundation has given away almost three million dollars since two thousand two. It has helped build more than four hundred skate parks across the United States. Tony Hawk says young skateboarders take part in designing and building the parks.

TONY HAWK: “And I feel like that’s the real accomplishment for them, is that they saw it through. They cut through all the red tape and they finally made it happen. And there it is. There is literally concrete evidence of their work.”
