The Manny Alder and Jon Miller Bike for Kids bike project will be held in May 2027. Chula Vista Rotary Club will partner with Interact, Rotaract, Area 6 Rotary Clubs, District Polio Plus Committee, Bonita Kiwanis, South Bay Sustainable Communities, Safe Kids San Diego, Ride Krew SD, Sharp and Scripps Hospitals, Child Development Associates, Altrusa, CV Elementary School District, Sprouts, Costco and other community partners for a Bicycle build and distribution event. About 150+ bikes will be built in the morning the day of the event and will be given to underprivileged children identified through an application process in Chula Vista Elementary School District. They will be given the bikes, along with helmets donated by Scripps Hospital, and Safe Kids San Diego during the safety event. RideKrew SD will teach bike safety through a bike rodeo. For many of these children, this is the first bike they have ever owned due to financial reasons.
The event will be held at Child Development Associates (CDA) in Chula Vista. In addition to District funding, we plan on raising additional funds to continue growing this needed community event.
