<div>If you’ve been involved in Australian skateboarding over the last 20 years, chances are you’ve crossed paths with Pat Gemzik, seen one of his photos, watched footage he captured, shared a laugh with him, or been inspired by the passion and authenticity he brings to everything he does.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Pat isn’t just a skateboarder. He’s a storyteller, a creator, a friend, and a true original. Through his camera lens, he has documented countless moments that have become part of skateboarding history. He has travelled far and wide, capturing the raw spirit of skateboarding and shining a light on the people who make our culture so special.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>More importantly, Pat has always been there for others. He has supported skaters, encouraged creativity, celebrated individuality, and dedicated much of his life to giving back to the community he loves.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Today, Pat needs our support.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Following a devastating brain tumour diagnosis, Pat’s life has changed dramatically. The road ahead is filled with ongoing medical treatment, rehabilitation, uncertainty, and challenges that most of us can barely imagine. The physical, emotional, and financial toll has been enormous, affecting not only Pat but also those closest to him.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For someone who has spent so much of his life behind the scenes helping others, asking for help doesn’t come naturally. That’s why we’re reaching out on his behalf.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This fundraiser has been created to help ease the financial burden of medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, daily living expenses, and the many unexpected challenges that come with a life-changing health condition. Every donation, no matter how small, will make a genuine difference.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Skateboarding has always been more than a sport. It’s a community. A family. And when one of our own is hurting, we come together.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Pat has spent decades documenting our stories, supporting our scene, and helping shape Australian skateboarding into what it is today. Now it’s our turn to stand beside him.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If Pat has ever inspired you, made you laugh, shared a moment with you, captured a memory you’ll never forget, or simply been a positive force in your life, please consider donating and sharing this page.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Let’s show Pat the same love, support, and generosity that he has shown so many others over the years.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for helping one of skateboarding’s true legends through the fight of his life.
</div>
