ABGC Partners With Wish for Wheels to Give 25 Children a Christmas to Remember

In December, just ahead of the holiday season, the Annandale Boys and Girls Club was proud to be part of a special moment for local children who might not otherwise have received a bike or even a Christmas present.


Through a partnership with Wish for Wheels and GTT, ABGC helped deliver 25 brand new bikes and helmets to children in our community between the ages of 7 and 9.


A Day Built Around Giving


The event brought together volunteers, staff, and partners who worked side by side to assemble bikes, properly fit helmets, and make sure each child’s bike was ready to ride. For many of the children, it was their first brand new bike.


The smiles, excitement, and sense of pride were unforgettable.


More Than a Bike


This event was about more than bikes. It was about inclusion, dignity, and showing children that their community cares about them. For families facing financial challenges, a moment like this can make a lasting difference.


At ABGC, we believe youth sports and community outreach go hand in hand. Supporting kids means supporting the whole child, both on and off the field.


Thank You to Our Partners


We are deeply grateful to Wish for Wheels, GTT, and the volunteers who made this event possible. Their generosity and time helped create a meaningful experience for 25 children and their families.


Looking Ahead


Moments like this remind us why community partnerships matter. We are proud to continue working with organizations that share our commitment to creating positive experiences for local youth.


Thank you to everyone who helped make this day a success.
