Education. Health. Empowerment. Recreation.
Our EAB program teaches kids 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 one of our annual Bike Build events, where with the help of a volunteer, assemble a brand new bike that they've EARNED. |

Earn-A-Bike @ SchoolThe 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.

Youth Earn-A-Bike
This program provides San Antonio youth the opportunity to engage in hands-on learning that will earn them a bike they can call their own, while also receiving training in bicycle assembly, maintenance, and safety. During this class, youth learn the basics of bicycle repair, earn community service hours working on bikes, and also get to refurbish a bike for themselves to keep.
