This
new and exciting program provides donated bikes that have been refurbished
by EAB volunteers and staff as Christmas presents to families in need.
The bicycles, usually tire sizes 12 to 20 inch for children ages 5 to 10;
are collected throughout the year. In November and early December,
workshops are held with adult volunteers to clean and repair the bikes.
When repairs are completed, the Danbury School System locates homes for the
bikes and they are delivered to the parents in time for Christmas. A
new helmet is given with each bike.
Funding for this free program comes from various sources.
