About

 

Foundation info: The Jean Jaques Foundation is an organization with an overall goal to make skateboarding accessible for everyone around the globe. We feel that it’s our duty to give less fortunate people the chance to stand on a skateboard, since skateboarding has such a powerful impact on them and can change their lives.
