Since 2019 we have given away
8986
bicycles to children in need!
Our sponsors include Prologis, Howard County, The Howard Hughes Corporation, Trek, SafeKids, Park Tool, QBP, the Harkins Foundation, the MDOT Highway Safety Office, and BGE.

Help a Kid Be a Kid – Volunteer
We want to help every child feel the joys and freedom of riding a bike. You can help by volunteering to help during our annual campaign every fall.
Starting in October we can use people with all levels of bike experience, from “What’s a bike?” to “Mechanic for the Tour de France.”
High School kids under age 18 will need a permission slip; younger kids need to be accompanied by an adult. It’s a great way to earn community service hours, to help the community, and to contribute to our putting smiles on children’s faces in December. We offer a chance to help change a life.
