Youth Development

U.S. National data estimates that 73.5% of boys and 80.6% of girls do not meet physical activity guidelines. Guidelines for Children, created by the US Dept. of Health and Human Services, have been defined as having 60 minutes or more of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity daily. Physical inactivity has been linked to an increased risk of obesity and diabetes. 
Earn-A-Bike@School works with Title 1 Schools to deliver curriculum on key bicycle skills for safety and maintenance, as well as the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle by focusing on nutritional meals and exercise. Students who complete the EAB program are then invited to our annual Bike Build event where, with the help of a volunteer, they assemble a brand new bike that they've EARNED. Our hope is that these students continue to lead a physically active life, build community around their love for cycling, and feel empowered to continue to work toward their goals. ​

Earn-A-Bike @ School

The Earn-A-Bike@School is an incentive based program designed to focus on attendance, coursework, positive behavior, health, and fostering self empowerment. Our curriculum incorporates nutrition, safety, maintenance, and wellness components laced with the common thread of working towards a goal and earning it. The culmination of the program is our Build-A-Bike Event. With the help of a volunteer and mentor, students assemble their new bike, reinforce what they have learned about safe cycling and learn how to support each other when riding as a group. The event acts as a celebration of the students’ commitment and dedication to improving themselves and concludes in a two-mile group ride.

Earn-A-Bike @ Summer 

Earn-A-Bike@School takes over summer! In an adaptation of our traditional EAB @ School program, the summer program explores nutrition, safety, and bike parts with an integration of hands on learning of bike maintenance. The programs concludes with a bike build event, with the students building their new bikes and receiving their new helmets, lights, and lock. ​
