There were all sorts of bikes being given out — some with tassels and others with training wheels. Evangela Stanley, the owner of People’s Choice Kitchen, said many of these kids wouldn’t have a bike if not for the event.
The bikes were donated by people in the community, local businesses and politicians. Organizers said the event is about showing families their community is behind them.
It’s also about getting kids active by giving them a way to exercise and a new hobby all in one.
“We’ve donated a lot of bikes as well, but it’s really not about donating the bikes is more about what happens when the kids get the bikes. He had joy. You have freedom. You know, you have a lot of things that’s encompassed in the one that empowers the post. The children with the bike. You know, the motto is, is get them off the iPhones, the iPads and get them out here in the streets and and riding around and have fun again, you know, interacting again,” said Stanley.
Monroe County Traffic and Safety also joined in to make sure anyone picking up a bike also got themselves a helmet. Organizers said when they show up like this, it creates an impact that goes beyond a single day. They hope to do more giveaways like this in the future.
