Bicyles For Humanity


Welcome
B LOVE
Bicycles for Humanity is a global grassroots movement that provides the gift of mobility delivered by a bicycle to many in developing countries.
B HOPE
A bicycle solves the problem of mobility and helps empowers people to change their life. The mobility a bicycle provides allows people to travel greater distances in a shorter length of time and transport much more weight. Mothers can carry containers of water back to their village in a fraction of the time walking required. Students get to school faster saving precious daylight for studies. Parents transport more items to market to sell. Healthcare workers are 3 to 4 times more productive.
B CHANGE
B4H Chapters collect bicycles and ships them to community based organizations in developing countries. Bicycles are delivered in shipping containers that remain in the country and become community bicycle workshops called Bicycle Empowerment Centres. 100% of all donations are used to get bikes into the hands of those who need them.
B4H has 35 chapters in 5 countries. To date 50 Bicycle Empowerment Centres have been created in 8 countries. Since its inception in 2005, more than 45,000 bikes have been shipped to developing countries.
