Mission and programs · 2023

Primary exempt purpose

At the core of our mission is the belief that a childs ability to access activities that improve mental, emotional, social and physical health should not be determined by their race, ethnicity, gender, ability or zip code. With the demonstrated capacity of the bicycle to transform young lives and the historic lack of access to bikes, trails and cycling programs in underserved communities, we are committed to delivering programs that use the universal power of the bike to build healthy bodies, minds and communities.

  • Since 1988, more than 95% of the 250,000 children served nationwide by Trips for Kids member organizations have been from at-risk communities. Ours has always been a grassroots movement with limited visibility within the traditionally privileged cycling world. Working in partnership with more bicycle industry leaders and national cycling organizations, our ability to reach more kids with more programs and services continues to expand.In 2022, the Trips for Kids National Office served over 30 member organizations across North America providing them with program resources, cycling related equipment, online education platforms and community engagement services. We collected the following annual statistics from these member organizations about the kids they serve by program area.StatisticsRides: 403 / Riders: 4,710 / Earn-a-Bike Workshops: 84 / EAB Students: 607 / Bikes Donated: 7,241# Bikes Recycled: 3,832 / Satisfaction with TFK National Office: 4.4 out of 5. Of the 2,091 kids reported by ethnicity, 70% were non-white. Measure of ImpactThrough research published by The Aspen Institutes Project Play and longitudinal findings from our 30 years working with kids, the intergenerational implications of physical activity from early childhood through adolescence into adulthood is settled science and informs our work. Physically active children are less likely to be obese, smoke, use drugs or practice risky sex leading to pregnancy. They have up to 40% higher test scores and are 5% more likely to go to college. They also have lower levels of depression and self-derogation and higher self-esteem. Long term they have 7-8% higher annual earnings, are more productive at work and have lower healthcare costs.According to a 2020 study by Afterschool Alliance, Out-of-School programs provide significant ROI. A $1 investment returns $3 in youth earning potential, improved school performance and a reduction in crime and juvenile delinquency. Yet today more than 19 million children are unable to enroll in these types of programs. Trips for Kids is working to change that.ConclusionTo propel our movement forward, in 2023 plan we align with a major national organization that shares our mission, is positioned to build on our momentum and is committed to deliver our educational and programming resources to a broader membership. The whole being greater than the sum of its parts, this alignment will enable us to: Increase diversity in the youth cycling community /Broaden membership and geographic coverage / Build communities and connections / Expand programming resources and services.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

Related organizations

From Schedule R Part II, where a filer lists the tax-exempt organizations it is related to by control. It does not record shared board members or money.

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Not present in the most recent drop.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
