We are not a wealthy family. In fact our income is probably well below poverty line, but somehow my kids always have best bikes and best scooters in school. When I pick children from school, I stand on a side, don't socialize. My wife on contrary, she always befriends other parents, especially with disadvantaged background. After school children travel home in groups. Some on bikes, some on scooters and some... just run behind...

Long story short on a last day of school a boy from previously unknown to me refugee family has received a full sus 20" bike with a ribbon on it and a helmet. I must say I haven't seen or experienced so much joy for many, many years.

It... it felt good.

So if you have a spare bike gathering dust in a shed, consider donating it to those less fortunate.
