What is Happy Helmets?
Happy Helmets is a give back program we launched a few months ago. We donate new helmets to local charities, schools and youth programs. Each month a new helmet sponsor & donor is selected. Our goal of this program is to give individuals access to brand new helmets to keep their brains happy & healthy!
