In these uncertain times I hope that as individuals we can help make a difference and so I am joining Bike not Bombs' Bike-a-thon fundraiser. I'm riding to support their cause: 

"Bikes Not Bombs uses the bicycle as a vehicle for social change to achieve economic mobility for Black and other marginalized people in Boston and the Global South."

"Each year we collect roughly 5,000 used bicycles and tons of used parts from our supporters around Greater Boston and New England.

We ship most of these bikes overseas to economic development projects through our International Partnerships in Africa, Latin America, and the Caribbean.

Bikes that don't get shipped are distributed in Youth Pathways, where teens learn bicycle safety and mechanics skills in the process of earning bikes to keep for themselves. Staff and paid Youth Apprentices working in our retail Bike Shop & Training Center also recondition and sell some of the donated bikes that we receive.

Profits from bicycle sales, parts sales, and repairs go towards funding our youth and international work." ( Per Bike Not Bombs)

Please donate to my fundraising page and perhaps even join us on the ride!!

Thank you!
