Waukesha, Wis. – May 21, 2011 – The Habush Habush & Rottier Charitable Foundation will continue its statewide tour to provide children with free bike helmets at the Big Bend Bike Rodeo and New Berlin Safety Saturday.

Sixty local children will receive a free helmet on a first-come, first-served basis from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, May 21 at Village Park, located at W230 S9185 Nevins St. in Big Bend.

One hundred local children will receive a free helmet on a first-come, first-served basis from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, May 21 in the Children’s Hospital Clinic Parking Lot, located at 4855 South Moorland Rd. in New Berlin.

Since 1999, the Habush firm’s charitable funds have distributed more than 81,500 bicycle helmets to children throughout the State of Wisconsin and plan to donate an additional 10,000 this summer. Researchers have found that wearing a helmet can reduce the severity of brain injury by as much as 88%. Most of the helmets are distributed at bike safety rodeos and summer safety programs run by police departments and community organizations throughout Wisconsin. In addition, many police officers around the state distribute bicycle helmets to neighborhood children while on patrol, helping to promote positive, open relationships between local authorities and youth.

The Habush Habush & Rottier Charitable Foundation was established in 1999 to allow the law firm to give back to the communities in which its attorneys practice. The Habush Habush & Rottier law firm has been a Wisconsin personal injury law firm for over 75 years. Thirteen offices are located throughout the State of Wisconsin and are located in Milwaukee, Waukesha, Madison, Appleton, Green Bay, Racine, Kenosha, Lake Geneva, Wausau, Rhinelander, Sheboygan, West Bend and Stevens Point.
