What Your Donation Supports
Services Free of Charge
Our programs are free of charge and are designed to enrich the lives of our community's most vulnerable youth. We provide all the necessary equipment, safety gear, training, and supervision to ensure our participants' safety and well-being. Your support enables us to continue this work.

Nourishing Snacks
We prioritize meeting the basic needs of our participants, many of whom come from homes affected by hunger. Before every activity, we serve homemade, litter-free snacks prepared by community volunteers. Our ride leaders often come straight from school or work and are invited to enjoy the meals. This simple act of sharing food fosters a strong sense of community, bringing volunteers and participants together.
Equipment and Repairs
Our organization understands the importance of providing our youth with the best equipment to excel in their activities, so we supply quality bikes and skates. Safety is paramount, so we provide helmets and gloves for both activities. Additionally, we maintain our equipment to ensure it is always in top condition so that our participants can focus on the activity.
Training and Insurance
The safety of our kids comes first. We prioritize ongoing training and certifications to ensure our team has the latest expertise.
Our comprehensive insurance coverage backs us every step of the way, providing peace of mind for our volunteers, participants, and their families.
Leadership
Our team is essential to our program, and we are grateful for our volunteers' dedication and hard work. Since our inception in 2007, we have been fortunate to have a growing base of volunteers who contribute weekly to all aspects of the program. As our needs have grown, we have expanded our operation to include a full-time program manager to supervise and ensure we are ready for every outing. Your support helps us invest in our team, provide training, and ensure we have the budget and resources required for every child we serve to receive the guidance and support needed to thrive.
We provide vests for our dedicated volunteers to wear during activities and special events. These vests help participants easily identify TFKO team members and serve as a symbol of our strong presence within the community.
Vests
These are a few of the costs and expenses we face as we deliver our programs. We thank you for your support!
