Saving Lives,
One Helmet at a Time.

Mission

Life is precious.

Heads Smart works to create the next generation of helmet-wearing safe cyclists through education, advocacy and the distribution of free helmets to qualifying individuals.

What We Do

Heads Smart conducts bicycle safety programs for schools and communities in South Florida. Our flagship program, "You Must be Present to Win," integrates school wide bicycle safety education with an attendance incentive program. Heads Smart also conducts after school, parent, and community safety presentations and events. 

Our Story

Heads Smart was founded from personal experience to turn tragedy into prevention. Through real stories, education, and advocacy, we’re creating a safer, smarter generation of cyclists.

Because of your time, energy, and care, children in our community are safer every time they ride.

Helmets truly save lives, and your willingness to help fit, educate, and encourage children and families makes a real and lasting impact.

We couldn’t do this work without dedicated volunteers and partners like you.
