Tactics X Larry Yes | Ben Raemers Foundation
Mental health; it’s not easy to talk about, which is a tragedy in itself. The global pandemic has had a lasting effect on the mental health of many within our community and we believe it's important to stick together in developing the skills and tools needed to understand and address mental health.
To help shed some light on this heavy topic, we partnered with Larry Yes, a Portland-based artist, musician, and eternal optimist who focuses on positivity and heartfelt emotion. 100% of the profits from the product collection will be donated to the Ben Raemers Foundation to support thier mission of preventing suicide and destigmatizing mental health within the skateboarding community.
I hope to evoke emotions of awareness, community, hope, joy, fun, sillyness, sweetness, compassion, and nowism!!

The Ben Raemers Foundation was formed in 2019 after 28-year-old professional skateboarder, Ben Raemers, took his own life. The platform is aimed at raising suicide awareness and destigmatizing mental health conversations by hosting suicide awareness training and promoting mental health conversations.
