Thank you for supporting our efforts to help more kids be more active. Your donation supports our Adopt-A-Bike program, providing reconditioned bikes to kids in need throughout the Los Angeles region.
We are at it again! Our great partner Prevelo Bikes, is raffling off a new Alpha 5 kids bike ($649 value). You can purchase tickets online or in person – if you are going to the Sea Otter Classic in Monterey. If you are not present, Prevelo will ship it to you for free (certain restrictions apply):
$5 = 1 ticket • $20 = 5 tickets
This year we will visit 5 local doughnut shops, enjoying tasty treats while exploring the streets of Los Angeles. Thank you to Sidecar Doughnuts, Dounts USA, Randy’s Donuts, Krispy Kreme and SKs Donuts for their support!
Walk ‘n Rollers Safety Vest
Adults: $15 (S/M; L/XL); Youth one size fits all (after your donation is received, we will contact you for sizing).
In the Spring of 2020, at the start of the COVID shutdown, we discovered there are lots of kids without bikes and without the resources to purchase one. We immediately started collecting and repairing used bicycles. To date, we have-redistributed over 180 bikes. During the Safer at Home orders, this was largely done on the driveway of our executive director’s home and with the help of volunteer mechanics. Since, we have been able to secure permanent fixtures to house bikes awaiting repair or pickup, tools and supplies and a space for our bike build days. We are currently seeking funding to expand the program to include additional parts and supplies, seek and build curriculum and classes for our student volunteers. Please consider a donation today!
Your donation will help us provide outreach and education to schools aimed at encouraging more kids to walk and bike to school and purchase much needed equipment to help our programs continue to be the very best! Our programs not only help kids be more active and reduce traffic and pollution at school sites, but teach life long lessons, like responsibility, safety and good decision making.
