My Personal Fundraising Page

Bikes Not Bombs (BNB) does amazing work in local communities and around the world, and I am proud to ride to support them this year! I first learned of BNB in 2009 in Arusha, Tanzania, where Bernard Kiwia, a bike mechanic-turned-inventor, was using bicycles donated by BNB to build pedal-powered technologies and train youth in design, engineering and entrepreneurship. 

I continue to be impressed by BNB's range of offerings and the long-term impact of their programs.

The Bikes Not Bombs community:

  • Addresses the root causes of inequality, violence, and oppression
  • Supports the self-empowerment of individuals and communities as a means to achieve sustainable, effective social change.
  • Includes all people in the social change process in order to challenge the forces and effects of systemic oppression
  • Acts in solidarity with our local and international partners because this leads to collective understanding and strength
  • Commits to sustainable, equitable consumption of resources as critical to the health of our communities and our planet
  • Is courageous and bold in the face of injustice
  • Uses the bicycle as a powerful vehicle and tool for social change
  • Celebrates and builds upon the existing strengths of our partners and participants.

Please join me in supporting the important work of BNB! I will match the first $200 in donations this year.
