Bikes for Kids received a $30,000 grant from Madison Community Foundation through their 2023 community impact awards. The grant supports our purchase of a Bike Bus so we can pick up and haul bikes when the need arises, as well as participate in outreach events. The bus will also serve as a rolling billboard to promote our efforts and continue to build support. To date, we’ve been using our own personal vehicles to haul two or three bikes at a time. 

This grant is a huge boost to help us raise $75,000 to make this purchase possible. We will be purchasing a used vehicle but we also need to have a maintenance fund available for repairs and insurance.
