Kids Building Bikes

Description

Kids Building Bikes is an immersive, hands-on learning experience for youth in grades 4-8 where students have an opportunity to earn their very own bicycle, helmet, lock, & tools. Program participants will complete 16 hours of training focused on attaining mechanical competence and a greater sense of independence as well as improving problem solving skills, perseverance, & self-confidence.  

While the value of our training and the equipment that successful graduates will earn upon completion of the program is $1,000, we understand that cost can be a barrier to families. We don’t want that to be a reason a child can’t participate, because Kids Building Bikes exists to increase the accessibility of the bicycle for every child.   

Thanks to individual donors and funding partners, 100% of Kids Building Bikes participants will receive a scholarship that covers between 50%-95% of the program’s cost. That scholarship amount is based on factors like household income and household size on a case-by-case basis.
