Christmas Bike Build & Giveaway · Matt's Barn

Bike Build for
Lil Shredders

We raise the money, buy the bikes and gear, build them in one night, and put them straight into the hands of kids who need a Christmas.

Build night · Sat, Nov 7 ↓

What this is

A garage full of men. Kids on new bikes.

Every fall, our men's group turns a barn into a bike shop for a night. We buy brand-new kids' bikes, helmets, and gear, assemble every one, and hand them to a local charity that gets them to families who could use the help. Your dollars and your hands are what put a kid on a bike Christmas morning.

How the night comes together

Four steps, one goal: bikes in hands.

1

Raise

Every dollar goes to bikes, helmets, bells, and locks — nothing skimmed off the top.

2

Buy

We shop the deals and order in bulk so every dollar stretches into more bikes.

3

Build

Build Night at Matt's barn — dads, kids, tools, and food. Every bike assembled in one evening.

4

Deliver

We hand the finished bikes to our charity partner, who gets them to the kids for Christmas.
