SkateMD is a 100% volunteer-staffed, Northern California based, 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with a mission to heal hearts by spreading kindness and skateboarding to special populations of children facing developmental, physical, emotional or family challenges. We serve children who may not otherwise be able to pursue skateboarding, don't have easy access to skateboard equipment or facilities, and/or those who just need some extra kindness in their lives. Depending on the clinic or event, we may prioritize children with special needs, foster youth, or other at-risk children.

Our main program consists of free one-on-one skateboard clinics for children with special needs every other month at local skate parks in the Sacramento region. Each clinic hosts approximately 25 children and 70 volunteers. The Sacramento clinics are tentatively held on weekend days in January, March, May, July, September, and November. We also host at least one clinic annually in the CA Bay Area, generally in August.
