Bicycles for Humanity - Melbourne

in the developing world, one bike can dramatically improve, even save, many lives. having a bike means you can travel twice as far, twice as fast and carry four times the load. this simplifies access to health care, education, water and food, and can offer economic opportunities that benefit the whole community. this miracle is increased a hundred fold when we collect and ship a container of used bikes to africa, and further enhanced when each of the 40 ft shipping containers becomes a bike empowerment center, where we train participants to maintain and repair the bikes, providing employment for the individuals and an invaluable resource for the community in which it's placed. we are a grass-roots organization run entirely by volunteers. every penny donated goes directly towards our projects! to learn how you can help, follow our updates here or visit our website.
