covers one certified child helmet plus parent education
Why donate
$25 puts a certified helmet on a child who has never had one.
In Cambodia, fewer than 1% of child motorcycle passengers ride with a helmet. Not because parents don't care — because certified helmets are inaccessible, unaffordable, and culturally unfamiliar. Your gift changes that.
The direct impact
One gift. One child. One helmet that rides with them every day.
Jim's Helmets is not a one-time delivery. Every helmet comes with a 12-week school-based program: parent education, teacher reinforcement, a public handover ceremony, and follow-up checks to verify the habit is sticking.

What's at stake
A helmet is more than safety gear. It is financial protection for the whole family.
A single pediatric head trauma in Cambodia can cost $1,500–$2,500 in emergency care — more than a family earns in a year. The debt that follows can force land sales, sibling school dropout, and years of informal loans at 30–60% annual interest.
A $25 helmet interrupts that chain before it starts.
Why this model works
We don't hand out helmets and hope.
Gear donations without behavior change disappear. Jim's Helmets wraps every helmet in a 12-week school pathway that builds the daily habit parents and children need to make protection stick.
Certified helmets
Child-sized, safety-certified helmets built for Cambodia's climate — low weight, passive airflow, secure fit.
Parent education
Local-language workshops that answer the myths: neck strain, heat, skull growth, and correct fit.
Measured results
School-gate follow-up at 2 weeks, 12 weeks, and 3–4 months shows donors whether habits are actually changing.
The founding campaign
The first 1,000 helmets start here.
Jim's Helmets is raising funds for a pilot school distribution in Cambodia. Every dollar goes toward certified helmets, school logistics, parent education, and follow-up measurement. No overhead fluff — just protection and proof.
