EASTERSEALS NORTH GEORGIA RECEIVES DONATION FROM FREE BIKES 4 KIDZ ATLANTA TO PROMOTE CHILDHOOD WELLNESS

ESNG Kids Receiving Bikes and Helmets!

Free Bikes 4 Kidz donates 140 Strider Balance Bikes and Helmets to Easterseals North Georgia to foster independence and confidence in young children.

ATLANTA, GEORGIA, UNITED STATES, July 17, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- - Easterseals North Georgia (ESNG), a community-based nonprofit that provides high-quality services to children with disabilities and their families, is thrilled to announce the generous donation of 140 Strider Balance Bikes and Helmets from Free Bikes 4 Kidz (FB4KATL). These bikes will be distributed across seven of ESNG’s Child Development Centers in the Atlanta area, bringing joy, confidence and physical activity to children in need.
The Strider Balance Bikes, designed without pedals, enable young children to learn balance and coordination more effectively than traditional bikes with training wheels. This early success helps build confidence, encourages toddlers to try new activities, and promotes overall physical and emotional development.

"I know what having a bike does for a child. My first bike was donated to me. We're excited to provide these balance bikes to help our youngest recipients learn to ride into a happier future," said Curtis Winston, Executive Director of FB4KATL.

This donation aligns perfectly with ESNG’s mission to support children's development in a comprehensive and inclusive manner. By integrating these balance bikes into its programs, ESNG is taking a significant step towards enhancing the physical development of the children it serves, providing them with opportunities to build essential motor skills and confidence in a fun, engaging way.

ESNG, known for its dedication to improving the lives of underserved children in North Georgia, will oversee the distribution of the balance bikes to ensure they reach those who will benefit most. This collaboration highlights the power of organizations working together to create positive change in the community.

"These bicycles will encourage outdoor activity and social interaction, which are vital a child’s development, said Donna Davidson, president and CEO of ESNG. “We are incredibly grateful to Free Bikes 4 Kidz for their generous support, which will undoubtedly make a positive impact on the lives of our young learners. Their heartwarming gesture helps us continue to create a supportive and enriching environment where every child can thrive.”
