Bicycle Helmets.....?

We have 5 active children and they live in their bike helmets.... the rule in our house is "if it has wheels you had better be wearing a helmet". Bicycle helmets are required by Law here in NYS and it amazes me how many children come to my house without them. If they are at our home without a helmet they are not allowed on their bikes.

Is there a place I can contact for free bike helmets?? I would love nothing more than to make sure every kid in my town has one.... and wears it. Even though it is a law, it is not enforced, which kills me.

Thank you in advance for any information.

Contact some of your local bicycle clubs; I've seen some run fundraisers to donate helmets to kids.

But, sounds like these aren't "poor kids" but jsut that their parents don't enforce a helmet rule like you do. Why not just talk to Mom n Dad?

Or, you could go to any big discount store and find plenty of helmets under $20 each.
