Describe the Organization's Mission:
Part 3 - Line 1
THE STRIDER EDUCATION FOUNDATION'S MISSION THROUGH THE ALL KIDS BIKE PROGRAM IS TO TEACH EVERY CHILD IN AMERICA HOW TO RIDE A BIKE IN KINDERGARTEN PE CLASS. OUR INITIATIVE PROVIDES CHILDREN THE OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN HOW TO RIDE A BIKE, A SKILL THAT FOSTERS INDEPENDENCE, CONFIDENCE, AND FITNESS. OFTEN, WE ASSUME THAT LEARNING TO RIDE A BIKE IS A CHILDHOOD RITE OF PASSAGE. THE REALITY IS THIS IS NOT NECESSARILY A SKILL BEING TAUGHT AT HOME, WHETHER IT BE FAMILY FINANCIAL DIFFICULTIES, LACK OF TIME, LACK OF SPACE, OR ANY OTHER REASON. HAVING INSTRUCTION AND EQUIPMENT AT THE SCHOOLS HAS PROVEN TO BE A SUCCESSFUL SOLUTION.
