Vision
Recycled and unwanted bikes can be fixed and used by inner city youth.
Action
Our Bike Shop fixes bikes that were no longer being used or thrown out. This year we have already fixed up to 21 bikes that will be used by Junior High students. They do the majority of the work on the bikes. This project helps divert bikes from the landfill and encourage their use by making them available. Students also learn valuable repair skills that can be used to maintain the bikes.
