Exposure Skate is a 501(c)3 nonprofit, featuring year-round programming dedicated to empowerment, service, learn-to-skate-clinics, and college scholarship opportunities. Exposure’s mission is to showcase the progression of women, trans and nonbinary skateboarders and to further empower such individuals by raising funds and awareness for at-risk communities including victims of abuse, homelessness and poverty. Exposure’s programming includes international competitions, youth and adult skate & serve clinics, yoga clinics and mental wellness workshops and partnerships with health and wellness companies.
 
Exposure’s programs are inclusive to girls, women, trans, and nonbinary people from all over the globe, with skaters traveling from as far as Japan, South Africa, Australia, and Brazil, to compete in the  annual competition. Exposure’s Annual Skate Competition is the largest skate contest featuring all female, trans and nonbinary individuals in the world. 60% of female or non-binary participants in Olympic Skateboarding events have participated in at least one Exposure event and many got their competitive start at Exposure.
 
Our Skate Rising program teaches skateboarding to girls ages 4-18 alongside various community service projects. Nearly 100 girls attend each event and each individual girl's service project serves 1-3 individuals in need. The adult Sesh(E) program offers free skateboarding guidance to women, trans and nonbinary skaters age 18+ in exchange for goods donated to the local domestic violence shelter. Exposure provides personalized instruction with professional skate coaches, skate gear, and safety equipment at every clinic. In 2020, Exposure introduced its two annual $5,000 College Scholarships for skaters who actively contribute to the wellbeing of their communities.
