About the project
The RollinBuckeyez Foundation is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit whose primary mission is to provide high quality artistic and athletic activities and services that respond to the changing needs of our community.
I’m excited to introduce you to one of our exciting programs, which assist families in creatively incorporate artistic and athletic activities into our communities. From the evolution in the early 1700’s, roller skating has always been one of the safest and healthiest forms of exercise and recreation for all ages. If it’s just to have a great time, listen to music, or meeting new people; what a great way to do so while burning calories.
We've offered our Turning Wheel's camp to the community for the past 2 year's through grant funding.We did not recieve funding this quater.We do want to completely walk away from the community because of our failure to get a grant to see the program trough. We will scale down this year and try again next year.
In the meantime we want to continue to still engage the community with a good time.but we need some assistance.
The Steps
Bring a proposal to the director and the recreation center (completed and approved)

Why we‘re doing it
It's personal for me because it gives me the opportunity to help the community that raised me. It gives me the opportnity to occupy a vacant space and fill it with hope and energy! A way of bringing the community together.
