INSPIRING A LIFELONG LOVE OF CYCLYING
Mongoose is the proud primary sponsor of the USA BMX Foundation, the nonprofit arm of USA BMX, the world’s largest BMX racing organization. The Foundation offers cycling-inspired STEM education programs for U.S. elementary schools, reaching an estimated 225,000 students annually. Through hands-on, project-based learning, young students across the country engage in new ways of learning science, technology, engineering, and math – all through the lens of a BMX bike.
“Partnering with such a legendary brand allows us
to reach more schools and more students, effectively doubling the number of students we will impact.”

TRACK MODELING PROGRAM
In the Track Modeling program, students conceptualize, design, and build their very own BMX track – on a table-top scale. Students can even visit a BMX track to learn from experts about riding and track design. This kid-favorite program is aligned with Next Generation Science Standards and uses the Three-Dimensional Learning Model framework.
WORLD CLASS
RIDERS
To help inspire the next generation of cyclists, Mongoose also sponsors several world-class BMX racers, including Justin Posey, Cam Wood, Payton Ridenour and Mason Hayes. These riders are not only champions on the race track, they’re also highly involved education ambassadors with a strong belief in the mission of the USA BMX Foundation.
