The Full Story
About Books to Bikes Community Program
The Books to Bikes Community Program was created in 2025 to increase literacy amongst youth in conjunction with their love for riding, encouraging safety, community engagement and active transportation. In the US, only 47% of Kindergartens were on reading level in 2023 and the literacy crisis continues to rise as well as the obesity and mental health crisis amongst our children and youth. With this program, Nazeem, a Speech - Language Pathologist, believes that we can improve the quality of life for all children mentally, physically and academically because every child needs a bike and every child should have the opportunity to read.
