LET'S CELEBRATE 20 SOLID YEARS!

LET'S CELEBRATE 20 SOLID YEARS!

Two decades ago, a couple friends set up ramps in an empty parking lot to support skateboarding and build community.

Since 2002, we have seen:

  • over 10,000 participants skate with us

  • over 300 free, mobile, parking lot events

  • over 1,400 SkateClub weekly discussion group meetings

  • over 18,200 volunteer hours giving back

Our Mission:

At SOLID, we offer empowering programs that inspire, connect and support young people to maximize their potential and equip them to radically impact their community and beyond.

2022 was AMAZING!

The SOLID HQ is moving!

We are excited to announce that we are moving the SOLID HQ - the home of our nonprofit organization - to a new location in the heart of Paterson, NJ with:

  • Indoor skatepark

Get involved.

Volunteers needed.

  • Help with the move.

  • Assist with a program.

  • Assist with new construction.

Support SOLID.

A financial contribution at SOLID goes a long way, but if that is not possible at this time, perhaps you can support our work with the purchase of a tee shirt or sweatshirt. Proceeds from each purchase help us cover our new monthly expenses at the SOLID HQ in Paterson.
