Safety takes knowledge.
We plant helmets
For every YOONIT Mini Impact Edition sold, we donate 25 bike helmets to children — for more safety
YOONIT Mini Impact Edition
This bike plants 25 helmets
With the powerful SHIMANO EP6 drive and large battery (630 Wh), Gates Carbon Drive, and Daily Basket, the YOONIT Mini Impact Edition is built for everyday life — and with every purchase, it funds 25 children’s helmets for social projects.
The lettering “This bike plants 25 helmets.” is engraved on the fork — keeping the idea behind the project visible for years to come.
The Journey of the Helmets
How It Works
1. You buy the YOONIT Mini Impact Edition
At the YOONIT Store Hamburg, online, or at participating retailers.
2. We donate 25 children’s helmets
1 bike = 25 bicycle helmets for more safety. Together with our partners, we provide 25 helmets for social projects.
3. We distribute the helmets to children
Join us and follow the project. We document every handover here at wirpflanzenhelme.de
“We develop cargo bikes that families use every day. Protecting children isn’t a campaign for us — it’s a responsibility.”
Why this project matters
Safety starts with a properly fitting helmet
Not something everyone can take for granted.
For some families, a new helmet is a financial burden. But safety should be within reach for every child.
Many risks are underestimated in everyday life. Traffic education and awareness help children and families stay safe on the road.
Helmets are used for too long.
Helmets are used for too long.
Bicycle helmets should be replaced after a serious fall. Yet they’re often passed on or bought secondhand — with no way to know if they still offer reliable protection.
Our Approach
Why we do this.
Safety isn’t an extra Safety is the foundation for independent mobility. It should be a given for every child.
Equal opportunity Every child should be able to move safely on a bike — regardless of their family’s financial situation.
More than getting around Feeling safe on the road builds independence, confidence, and more freedom in everyday life.
