The world's best known skaters will join over 1,000 kids of all ages on a closed, one mile course through the streets of LA next month... and it's all for charity. Skateboard For a Cure 2008 is a huge charity event in which all the money goes to the TJ Martell Foundation, a Children's Hospital based AIDs and Cancer research organization. Participants who donate just 20 dollars or more will get a limited edition “Skateboard for a Cure 2008” T-Shirt, free goodies, and admission into the “after skate party” at Fairfax high school, which you will not want to miss. The party will feature an exclusive skate demo featuring the A list Skaters at the event, autograph sessions, food, music, and raffles for cool prizes. And participants who raise the most money can win great prizes, like top of the line skateboards, guitars, and cell phones. It's gonna be a killer day of skating with your heroes, and it's all for a great cause, so check it out. Skateboard for a Cure goes down on Saturday, August 9th this year, and you can check out more info at Skateboard for a Cure.Com
