 "Earn a Bike Program" for children in grades 5-8.   
Than high school students will be employed to train and teach the elementary and middle school students participating in the after school programs giving instructions on, how to maintain their bicycles?

By completing the safety course and doing community service along with submission of a book report. Students completing the program will also get a helmet and lock for their bikes. 
This such a great idea for any community in helping a child obtain their first bike but teaching them the safety rules and showing them how to maintain it. There are a lot of children out there that parents can't afford to buy their kid a bike.   But with earning a bike program helps these parents.
