OUR MISSION:

The Bikes4All nonprofit tackles the decline of hands-on, vocational learning in high schools by offering an after-school bike-repair program and distributing free, refurbished bikes as a byproduct of students’ work.

How We Do It

"Easy as 1, 2, 3"

1

Receive

  • Members and organizations donate bikes to Bikes4All.
     

  • In return, donors receive a fixed tax-deductable letter for their donation.
     

  • We accept any and all bikes free of frame fractures and/or missing parts.

Repair

2

  • We partner with local Santa Cruz County High Schools to provide a hands on learning opportunity for Saturday Academy students.
     

  • Volunteer, professional bike mechanics mentor groups of 3-5 students, teaching them how to fix bikes and approach complex problems.
     

  • To-date, we have donated over 100 free bikes.

Repurpose

  • Anybody, regardless of financial status, socioeconomic background, or geographical situation can apply for a free bike.
     

  • We prioritize persons who may be going through difficult circumstances such as: foster students, essential workers, and persons who have lost their primary mode of transportation.
     

  • The abuse of our services will not be tolerated. Persons who provide false info for the purposes of "cutting the line" will be banned from B4A and any future B4A related activities.

TESTIMONIALS

"I work as a nurse and rely on my car to get to work. When it broke down, I needed another way to get to my job. A bike did that for me"

"I just wanted a bike and could never afford one. I'm over 30 years old now and I finally get the chance to ride a bike."

"What an amazing birthday gift! My youngest will love his new bike. This way he can get to school by himself.
