Thanks so much for considering making a donation to Bikes Not Bombs! :) Bikes Not Bombs is a wonderful local organization that partners with organizations using the bicycle to drive social change in their communities. We are looking forward to participating in the 50 mile ride, and fundraising in support of all their good work. 

We are hoping to raise $750. We also have an ambitious stretch goal of $1500. If we are able to raise that amount a generous anonymous donor has agreed to make an additional $1500 gift to the organization. 

More about Bikes Not Bombs: 

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 Partners in Africa, Latin America, and the Caribbean.

Some of the bikes are repurposed in our Youth Programs where teens learn bicycle safety and mechanics skills in the process of earning bikes to keep for themselves.

Our retail Bike Shop also reconditions and sells some of the donated bikes that we receive, while employing many graduates of our programs. The Shop's profit from the bicycle sales, parts sales, and repairs goes towards funding our youth and international work.
