Yesterday marked an incredible milestone with the Elijah Kerslake Memorial Fund providing the largest ever private donation to Right to Skate at $16,000. With pride we introduce the Elijah Kerslake Skateboard Scholarship, a fund that covers all costs associated with skateboarding for youth from low-income families, marginalized communities, and those facing other barriers to accessing skateboarding. This donation ensures the longevity and reach of scholarships, and provides a great boost to our existing programs and goal to open the doors of an indoor skatepark in Saskatoon. Thank you Eli, your passion for skateboarding will be passed on to many. Thank you Lynn Bjorndalen, Danny Kerslake, and all who contributed.
