Bikes for Kids

Relive the joy of receiving your first bicycle at one of our favorite community events: Bikes for Kids, presented by Variety the Children's Charity, the St. Louis Rams, THF Realty and World Wide Technology.

More than 150 volunteers are needed to unload and build bicycles, hand out T-shirts, distribute helmets, and greet and interact with children. Minimum Age: 16 

Volunteers will meet at 8 a.m., toolboxes in hand, to build bikes for children who are funded by Variety's partner agencies throughout the
St. Louis area.

Around 11 a.m., the children will arrive to get their bikes – just in time for the holiday season! Also that day, Variety will present 30 custom therapeutic bikes to children with physical disabilities. Unable to ride traditional bicycles with their friends and siblings, these kids will now be able to hit the open road with other children their age!
