Check out a conversation between Boarding for Breast Cancer’s founders Tina Basich, Shannon Dunn, Kathleen Gasperini, Lisa Hudson and B4BC Executive Director Erika Seward. Listen in as they discuss the friendship at the roots of B4BC, women in action sports, the importance of health and wellness, and the future of B4BC.
“After doing this for a couple years with bands like the Beastie Boys, Foo Fighters, Blink 182, Moby, Primus and Luscious Jackson, we realized we had all this incredible potential. We decided that, in addition to donating to the local charities and nationwide charities, we were also going to start our own foundation and really direct our attention on educating young women and making educational pieces that spoke directly to them about the disease. It’s been amazing to see B4BC continue to grow and reinvent itself, always with the underlying goals of education and outreach.”
– B4BC Co-Founder Lisa Hudson
“I really think that our friendship encouraged other girls not to just be in the sport themselves, but to come together collaboratively and push women to snowboard.”
– B4BC Co-Founder Shannon Dunn
