Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

THE STRIDER EDUCATION FOUNDATION'S MISSION THROUGH THE ALL KIDS BIKE PROGRAM IS TO TEACH EVERY CHILD IN AMERICA HOW TO RIDE A BIKE IN KINDERGARTEN PE CLASS. AS A RESULT OF TEACHING CHILDREN HOW TO RIDE A BIKE IN SCHOOL, WE'RE PROMOTING PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, IMPROVED MENTAL WELL-BEING, AND INCREASED CONFIDENCE. OUR CURRICULUM DEVELOPS ESSENTIAL LIFE SKILLS LIKE BALANCE, COORDINATION, AND INDEPENDENCE, FOSTERING A LOVE FOR PHYSICAL ACTIVITY FROM AN EARLY AGE. THERE ARE MANY STATISTICS, SUCH AS THE INCREASING PREVALENCE OF DIGITAL DEVICE USE AND CHILDHOOD OBESITY RATES, THAT UNDERLINE THE IMPORTANCE OF INITIATIVES LIKE ALL KIDS BIKE.

Activities or mission (Part I)

TEACH EVERY CHILD IN AMERICA HOW TO RIDE A BIKE IN KINDERGARTEN PE CLASS.

THE FOUNDATION WAS ORGANIZED AND RECEIVED THEIR 501(C)(3) STATUS IN MARCH 2017. IN 2018, A FORMAL KINDERGARTEN PE CURRICULUM WAS CREATED FOR A MORE STRUCTURED PROGRAM, AND THE ALL KIDS BIKE INITIATIVE WAS DEVELOPED. 37 PROGRAMS WERE DELIVERED IN 2018. IN 2019, WE CONTINUED TO GROW AND DELIVERED 98 PROGRAMS. IN 2020, WORD SPREAD ABOUT OUR PROGRAM AND THE POSITIVE BENEFITS OF HAVING A SUCCESSFUL LEARN-TO-RIDE BIKE CURRICULUM IN A SCHOOL PE CLASS, AND WE DELIVERED 126 PROGRAMS. IN 2021, WE DELIVERED 184 PROGRAMS. 2022 WAS A PIVOTAL YEAR FOR US WHERE WE DELIVERED 380 PROGRAMS. 2023 WE DELIVERED THE FIRST STATEWIDE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE ALL KIDS BIKE PROGRAM IN NORTH DAKOTA.
