Bikes for Kids is a non profit program that started in 2000 with a goal to refurbish donated bikes and give them to kids that don’t have bikes. This effort continues but has expanded to include providing adult bikes through organizations in the community that are working with the homeless and adult populations needing bicycles for transportation.
The program is sponsored by the Marine View Presbyterian Church in NE Tacoma.
