Giving 3
When I found the World Bicycle Relief organization last year, I was thrilled! After being in Africa, we knew exactly how valuable a bike could be and we'd seen lots of them being used in very inventive ways. Giving a person a bicycle means that they can get to school quickly, loads can be carried easily, jobs can be taken further away and completed and they have a whole new-found mobility. For only $134 you can help a girl in Zimbabwe get to school every day! I am so, so happy to be able to give to an organization that is impacting people in such a positive way with a very simple vehicle, for just a few dollars. Ride on!!
