Harold Hunter Foundation

The Harold Hunter Foundation (HHF) was founded in 2007 to honor the life and legacy of iconic skater and actor Harold Hunter. For 17 years, HHF has been dedicated to transforming the lives of NYC youth through the power of skateboarding.

In 2025, TSP and HHF joined forces to strengthen the organization’s mission, expand programming, and maximize impact. As part of TSP, HHF will continue to provide direct-service skateboarding programs throughout NYC that continue to build on the legacy of the foundation.

HHF provides mentorship, mental health support, skill-building, and career development opportunities for youth in New York City through skateboarding-based programming.

Through this partnership, both HHF and TSP are committed to fostering personal growth, community engagement, career development, and educational resources for youth, through their combined initiatives.

Through panels, workshops, networking events, and other activations, the program provides valuable work experience while introducing aspiring professionals to a network of working creatives who have developed successful careers in, and adjacent to, the skate industry.
