Bikes Without Borders

BWB uses bikes as a tool for development and addressing the root causes of poverty in marginalized communities, both in the developing and developed worlds.

Positions:
  1. Bikes are valuable methods of transportation.
  2. A bike can save a life or mean the difference between poverty and abundance.
  3. Bike-friendly communities are people-friendly communities.

Description:
Bikes Without Borders aims to improve people's lives - in both the developing and developed worlds - by accessing bike-related solutions to community issues of poverty, education and health.

This could mean collecting used bikes to distribute to a rural community in Guatemala (eg. farmers, schoolchildren, healthcare workers).

Or developing bike-related recreational programming for youth in at-risk neighbourhoods in Toronto.

Or providing bike-related employment opportunities (e.g. courier businesses, bike rental businesses) to youth in India via our partners at Streetkids International.
