There’s nothing better than a bike to help children Get Out, move, breathe, play and release — a great tool for positive mental, physical, and emotional wellness impact!
The children of Robb Elementary will join Flores Elementary this fall, creating a total enrollment of 800 students. For Back to School days in August, we will host a Bikes For Kids giveaway to provide a bike and helmet for each child involved in the shootings at Robb and the children they will be joining at Flores Elementary school.
Please help us wrap our arms around the Uvalde community and let these families know we’re here for them and we won’t forget them. Returning to school will not be an easy transition, but new bikes and helmets, and the ability to Get Out for a positive wellness impact will be something to help these children and the Uvalde community continue to move forward and heal.
