Hello!
BNB has grown and changed in great ways, but it's still like family to me! Some of my oldest friends are from BNB and David and I met at a container loading, "flattening" and packing bikes bound for Nicaragua, at Ferris Wheels and Fresh Hair on South Street, JP, way back when.
BNB has been using the bicycle as a vehicle for social change for 40 years! While recycling 1,000's of bikes each year, Bikes Not Bombs provides skill development, jobs, and sustainable transportation to underserved youth and adults in Boston and across the Global South.
I am very late in the game; I was supposed to pick hazelnuts in W Mass. on bikeathon day but plans changed and now I can ride! Would you be willing to donate to my ride? This Bike-A-Thon is Bikes Not Bombs' biggest fundraiser each year.
Thank you so much for helping me reach my goal and for supporting the awesome, important work of Bikes Not Bombs.
Truly,
Lauren
