Build a Better Future!
50 Bikes for 50 Kids is a community service event held on Martin Luther King Jr Day, a National Day of Service, that matches teams of volunteers with well-deserving kids to assemble 50 new quality bikes. Kids in 5th - 12th grades are nominated by local organizations for demonstrating traits such as respect, responsibility and citizenship. After nominations are reviewed, 50 youth are selected to help build and receive a new bike during a highly energized daylong event. The kids and volunteers experience firsthand the rewards of teamwork, volunteerism, and a sense of community.
How to Get Involved
Sponsor: Help play a role in changing kids' lives! Your support of this inspiring event will get the wheels turning for our children, our volunteers, and our community.
Volunteer: From set up and clean up to bike building and photography; there are opportunities available for anyone. You don't need to be a bike mechanic to volunteer, we'll train you! We welcome anyone who has a desire to give back to the community and to our local youth.

#50bikes2017 Had a fantastic day volunteering at 50 Bikes for 50 Kids. The kids are awesome and the #NorthNatomasTMA does an amazing job with this event. We sponsored a bike for one of the kids under the 'kid friendly' team name "Cycling UniKitties." Honored to add one more cyclist to the ranks. | |
