High-need audience
Children riding as motorcycle passengers are exposed daily and often missed by enforcement.
Low unit cost
Bulk sourcing targets make a certified helmet-and-education package accessible to donors.

The school pathway addresses why safety gear is worn, not just whether it is distributed.
Reportable outcomes
Helmet counts, school reach, workshops, observed use, and trade-ins can be reported clearly.
