An electric skateboard for Jake who will use this as a method of transportation

Posted Jan 18, 2023
Jake uses his current skateboard to get around everywhere he goes; school, work, and to hang out with his friends. Having an electric skateboard will help with his transportation and help get where he needs to be a little easier. He is eager to learn more about anything that has to do with skateboards and motorcycles. Jake uses skateboarding as a coping skill to keep his mental health in check.

Jake is incredibly smart and talented. He LOVES to skateboard, build things, and is in the process of getting his motorcycle license. He lives with his stepdad and brother and is an all around amazing person to be around. Jake is very independent and has been through so much growing up.
