Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Free Bikes 4 Kidz is geared toward helping children ride into a happier, healthier, more independent childhood by providing bikes to those most in need. We collect bikes donated by the public, organize volunteers to clean and refurbish them, and give them away with a new helmet to children in need identified by partnering schools, religious and nonprofit organizations, and government social services agencies. We also encourage safe riding and sponsor free bike repair clinics.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Collect, refurbish, and give away bicycles with new helmets to children in need referred to us by schools, religious and nonprofit organizations, and government social services agencies. Support initiatives to make bicycling safer for children.

  • Collect, refurbish, and give away bicycles with new helmets to underserved children. In FY2025 we collected 3,555 bikes and refurbished and gave away 3,340.

    Expenses $460,008 · Grants $405,235

  • Sponsor free bike repair and information sessions. We conducted eight free information and repair sessions at local libraries and events.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
