What We Do

Bicycles for Humanity empowers disadvantaged communities in Africa with their own sustainable transportation.

We send gently used bikes to help improve access to healthcare, education, food, water and employment.

Bicycles for Humanity is entirely volunteer-run - 100% of donations go toward transportation and in-country project implementation costs of Bicycle Empowerment Centres (BEC).
