We have so many programs you can plug into. From Bicycle camps to community events – we'd love to create community with you!

Volunteer

Share your passion and energy with us. Whether you're great at event planning or bike tuning, we can find the perfect fit for you at Kids on Bikes.

We can't do it without you. Just $50 gives a child a helmet and toolkit. Even better – donate your bike! Everything helps to empower kids to get out and ride.

Proud partners
