Purpose:
The grant
was established to provide a Program to a school or organization that would
otherwise not have been able to purchase a Program outright. Our Program is
founded on the premise that good health is holistic: nutrition, physical
activity, intellectual stimulation, and emotional well-being are all related
facets of overall wellness. CYCLE Kids uses a comprehensive curriculum that
teaches not just the skill and safe practices of riding a bike, but also how to
make good nutrition choices; incorporating physical activity, reading, and
writing skills.
Designed for 4th and 5th grade students, can be taught during physical education classes or in after school programs. CYCLE Kids recommends the Program be taught for at least eight class sessions, a minimum of 1 hour each session. A CYCLE Kids Program costs $15,000 and includes the following:
- A license agreement with CYCLE Kids
- Teacher guidebooks
- Teacher training
- 50 student textbooks
- 10 bicycles
- 25 helmets
Deadline: March 3, 2014
Amount: $15,000
