Bikes 4 Humanity

Geraldton

Donate your unwanted bicycle to us and we will recondition them and send them to Africa where the bikes can change the village people’s lives.

The people can ride the bikes long distances in a short time, much quicker than walking. A Bike can mean access to health care, fresh water, economic opportunity and community. We need sturdy push bikes like mountain bikes suitable for riding on gravel roads and carrying heavy loads. Wheel sizes over 20 inches with gears.

Some donated bikes are used for spare parts.

Some good unsuitable bikes are sometimes sold and the proceeds go towards the $10,000 needed to ship containers to Africa. This money is for the container, shipping, insurance and port fees.

For more information, or to donate, visit www.b4h.com and see also www.b4hwa.com

Your donated bike/s can be dropped to us at 27 Eakins Crescent Wandina Geraldton WA 6530
