We send bikes to disadvantaged communities in Africa

to improve access to healthcare, education, food, water and employment

Since the launch of the Bicycles for Humanity initiative in the Ottawa area in 2007..  together, all of us volunteers, donors, sponsors and supporters have empowered thousands of people through access to mobility! We have sent 7 containers filled with 2600+ bikes along with hundreds of spare parts and tools that benefited over 10 disadvantaged communities in Namibia and Malawi. We've initiated 3 community-based bike shops, created 15 jobs, and enabled improved access to healthcare, education, food, water, employment and social opportunities for thousands - and we did this together, as one community to another...  And we're not finished!  We're springing into action with participation in a ton of wonderful events from now until summer 2013 -  We really hope to see you at some of these events! THANK YOU so much for your continued interest and support - means the world to us and a whole lot of others half way around the world! We are now fundraising for next year’s campaign. 100% of all donations go directly to the transportation costs of the bikes. Every dollar makes a big difference - please contribute now!
