About Going Places
Going Places' mission is to provide disadvantaged kids with their most basic childhood right- A right to Joy. They do that by surprising every child in the low-income, high-poverty elementary schools with a brand new, high quality, custom bike. A bike represents Joy, freedom, escape, ownership, and restored innocence in these children's lives. By the end of 2020, Going Places will have given 2060 bikes to disadvantaged kids in 3 years time.
Going Places is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization.
