Bringing Bikes to Schools
We are excited to continue our mission of getting bikes in schools across Missouri!
​
Bicycles in PE class are proven to increase engagement in students, fight childhood obesity, and promote many more lifelong skills.
​
With the help of the community and our generous supporters, we have equipped 26 schools with the All Kids Bike Program! With your continuous support, we will further this initiative with many more schools in the near future.

“Children who begin biking or walking to school at an early age (Grade 1+) are more likely to stay a healthy weight during their early school years.”
Pabayo, R., et al., 2009 – Sustained Active Transportation is associated with a favorable body mass index trajectory across the early school years: Findings from the Quebec Longitudinal Study of Child Development birth cohort, 54,The more traffic surrounding a child’s home, the more likely they are to be overweight or obese.
The All Kids Bike panel, “The Physiology of Early Childhood Biking” discusses the physical development of toddlers and kindergarteners, including balance and muscle strength. It also examines how exercise improves children’s health, including cardiovascular, motor skills, coordination, weight management, skeletal development, and the immune system.
