SUPPORT COMMUNITY LEADER HEALING DUE TO HATE CRIME

Donation protected
This Gofundme is dedicated to our friend Bri who was recently a victim of a hit and run. On July 19th, she was on her way home from a skate session when she witnessed an old man make eye contact and proceeded to run her over with his minivan. Even worse, he dragged her for half a block. Because of this intentional attack, Bri’s life has been significantly impacted.

  Now with a broken pelvis and severe burns, Bri is unable to work, march with Black Lives Matter, and her collaboration with Womxn’s Skate Safety initiative is on hold. Determined to heal as quickly as possible, Bri continues to be a source of inspiration. Thinking of others, she would never ask for anything so please donate what you can and share! We are asking for help to cover the following things:
*Medical Expenses
*Rehab to be able to walk again
*Loss of wages due to the inability to teach
*Rent
*Groceries

  Bri is a genuinely kind-hearted and talented person who always champions others. In fact, before the assault, Bri spent her free time collecting and donating skate gear for newbie skaters being bullied online. She also inspired our community of womxn and the LGBTQIA through her progressive TikTok tutorials (@Sk8rScout), skits, and Youtube (TheBeatingArt ).

Special shout out to @ProperGnar and @globeskate for donating one of their sick decks to our girl! Anyone else who would like to donate trucks, protective gear, etc. please feel free to contact me @ThatCaliCrys on IG. The Castanedas are really overwhelmed with messages right now. But I AM sending donations directly to her. Well wishes and affirmations are welcome.

P.S. PLEASE DO NOT DM BRI OR HER MOM WITH TRIGGERING QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED! Bri loves seeing videos of you guys skating and having fun. Those DMs are very welcomed so please share. Thanks for reading!
