Skilz represents our message that by building your skills you will do better. Period. To be prepared for 21st Century jobs you must build your skills. Skilz does what anybody & everybody needs to do to build their skills - work hard. 

       

The Skilz was created for two main reasons: 1: to become an iconic figure that will better deliver our message 2: to help support job skills training programs in inner city schools.  A significant portion of proceeds from all Skilz products goes to help support IronboundUSA.org's job skills programs in Newark, NJ - one of the toughest cities in America.  Ironbound USA's motto is "Build your skills. Build your brand. Build your future." Please read about the great work IronboundUSA does.  This is not idle talk about supporting job skills programs, we actually do it.  Skilz is used to help teach Ironbound's educational programs.  The co-creator of Skilz is the Founder of Ironbound USA.  There is a symbiotic relationship.    

Independently from our good message & cause, the Skilz Brand needs to be innovative and authentic. It must be able to stand on its own. The Skilz Brand is cool as hell, well designed, well made, innovative & authentic. We are proud of what we do, who we are and the message that Skilz represents.  Skilz works with excellent artists & athletes who believe in the Skilz cause.  

We feel that Skilz products could be a stand alone brand.  And when you combine the great brand with the support of job skills in inner cities, we believe there is no brand that compares.  That is a strong and bold statement.  But if you work hard and build your skills, you can confidently (not arrogantly) believe it.
