| Description | Elves & More is Changing lives One bike at a time! Elves & More focuses on at-risk children throughout Greater Houston and uses new bicycles as the principal way of doing this. Here's how: Strengthening Education: We partner with Independent School Districts to enhance literacy outcomes in the early years of education. Through contracts signed with their teachers each child sets an individual measurable goal and also agrees to a minimum standard of behavior. Students parents also sign the contracts to ensure parental involvement and agreement in the process. As the semester progresses, teachers use the contracts to motivate students. At semester's end, those students who meet their goals are rewarded with new bicycles and helmets from Elves & More. Building Fitness & Health: By providing two wheels to serve as basic transportation and permit participation in after-school activities etc., our bicycles encourage children to get out and ride, as well as participate in a host of other healthy activities which build muscle, burn fat and improve cardiovascular fitness. Studies show that healthier bodies lead to better performance in school. 126,504 Bicycles to date: During 2012, Elves & More gave 10,733 new bicycles to at-risk children, bringing its cumulative total of bicycles to 126,504 bicycles since the program's inception in 2000. | Description |

| Explanation | Elves & More partners with school officials in the Houston Independent School District (HISD) and with other ISDs in the eight-county Greater Houston Area. Focusing on children who are at risk, the Charity and ISDs select Elementary Schools and work with administrators and teachers to offer earn-a-bike contracts to all students who want one. Those contracts call for children to improve their performance in academics, attitudes and behaviors. The contracts are aimed at achieving better literacy. Once children receive their bicycles, they use them for fun, exercise and as basic transportation. | Explanation |

| Form 990, Sch. B - Sch. of Contributors | The contributions reported in Schedule B are considerably lower than those received due to IRS restrictions on how amounts are reported there. The major differences are: (1) in-kind donations of services and facilities are not reported, (2) contributions from related entities and family members are reported separately and (3) contributions are reduced by any benefits provided by the Charity in exchange for such contributions. In addition, donated auction items are not reported as donations in Schedule B and amounts paid to purchase auction items are reduced by the value of such items. This listing below shows donors who would have been listed on Schedule B if their donations had not been excluded from reporting under item 1 above.Davis Brothers Construction ($15,600), Freeman ($39,300), U Haul Storage ($230), Comcast (29,879) | |
