Kids on Bikes has spent 21 years getting children in Colorado Springs onto bicycles. The nonprofit works in low-income neighborhoods and hands out bikes along with riding lessons and the skills to fix a bike when something breaks.

Earn-A-Bike, the summer camps, and Pedal Station are still adding ways to take part. A $35,000 matching gift came in ahead of the group's fall luncheon, money meant to stretch whatever else the lunch raises.
