Our mission
Free Bikes 4 Kidz MN is a non-profit organization geared toward helping all kids ride into a happier, healthier childhood by providing bikes to those most in need. The public donates gently used bikes, we organize thousands of volunteers to clean and refurbish them, and then we give them away to kids in need.
Riding a bike isn’t just fun; it’s good for your body and your brain. It boosts mood and lowers depression and anxiety symptoms in kids. It lowers the risk for type II diabetes and reduces the risk for all-cause morbidity in those with diabetes by 35%. It builds stronger, more resilient brains by increasing gray matter volume and white matter integrity.
