Universal Surveillance Systems Foundation to Donate Free Bicycles to Low-Income Children Across the Nation
 

Rancho Cucamonga, CA - October 9, 2013 - The Universal Surveillance Systems Foundation (USSF) continues it’s mission to break the cycle of poverty by donating free bicycles to hundreds of underprivileged children nationwide through their Adopt-a-Bike program. USSF will select five to ten schools to receive new bikes this holiday season in hopes of encouraging students to continue their education and strive for a better future.

The USS Foundation wants to inspire children to stay in school, work hard, and break the cycle of poverty by providing new bicycles to students who may otherwise become discouraged by economic obstacles. Twenty-five semi-finalist schools were selected that have a large number of students whose families are struggling with poverty. New bikes will provide reliable transportation for these children to get the education necessary to achieve a better life.

The final schools will be selected based on amount of public support each receives on the USSF Facebook page. Individual bike recipients will be selected by their school based on academic standing, attendance and good behavior. The 25 semi-finalist schools are listed on http://www.ussfoundation.org/adoptabike.php.

“As a child who grew up in poverty I can relate to the struggles these children are faced with, and one of them shouldn’t be getting to school each day,” said Adel Sayegh, founder and CEO of USSF. “I will continue to do all that I can to make sure these children have the transportation needed in order to get an education and increase their chances of a better life. The USS Foundation will be a part of making this a better Christmas for the children, while also making their futures brighter by providing them with transportation to school.”

Founded in 2011 by Adel Sayegh, president and CEO of Universal Surveillance Systems (USS), the USS Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping underprivileged children to have the tools, skills and knowledge to build a better life with a hope for a brighter tomorrow. Adopt-A-Bike, has donated hundreds of bicycles to low-income children in numerous states to assist them in traveling to school.
