World Bicycle Relief mobilizes communities in rural regions around the world to thrive with life-changing bicycles.
A global non-profit, World Bicycle Relief is a catalyst for change, partnering with people in rural communities around the globe to realize their goals by expanding opportunities to access education, markets, health facilities and vital services with the tool they need to thrive.
Compared to walking, bicycles represent an enormous leap in productivity and access to healthcare, education and economic opportunities. The simple, sustainable nature of bicycles empowers individuals, their families and their communities.
World Bicycle Relief has a goal to reach 1 million bicycles and empower 5 million people by 2025.
As a nonprofit organization, Adventure Cycling Association helps people discover the world by bike. We started in 1976 as Bikecentennial and have grown into the premier bicycle-travel organization in North America, with more than 50 years of experience. We continue to create new routes and update our classic ones, publish Adventure Cyclist magazine, and lead guided tours.
Bikes Not Bombs uses the bicycle as a vehicle for social change to achieve economic mobility for Black and other marginalized people in Boston and the Global South.
We reclaim thousands of bicycles each year. We create local and global programs that provide skill development, jobs, and sustainable transportation. Our programs mobilize youth and adults to be leaders in community transformation.
