Description & Services
Information | Hey kids, need a bike but can't afford to ride? Are you a youth in need of a bike, but don't have the financial means to purchase one? Do you live in Lunenburg County? If so, we may have the solution you're looking for. The United Way of Lunenburg County Bikes for Kids program has nearly 70 refurbished bikes that are looking for homes with kids just like you! These gently used bikes come in an assortment of sizes, from training wheels right up to bikes for teens, and even a small number of adult-sized bikes so mom or dad can ride along with you! To see if your family qualifies, please contact the Bridgewater Family Resource Centre or the PRO Kids Programs in Bridgewater, Chester or the Municipality of the District of Lunenburg. DO YOU HAVE A BIKE THAT YOU CAN DONATE? From the last week in September to the first week of November bring your gently used bike(s) to the Centre Court of the Bridgewater Mall (Entrance B). A group of volunteers will refurbish the bikes over the winter and Bikes for Kids will give them to kids who can't afford to purchase one. Bikes are distributed in the spring during National Bike Week.
