We appreciate your support of Working Bikes and empowerment by bicycles as we celebrate our 27th anniversary this year!

Working Bikes, a Chicago based not-for-profit tax-exempt 501(c)(3) humanitarian aid organization, appreciates your help with our mission. Without the support of thoughtful individuals like you, the work that we do would not be possible.

Working Bikes tackles two issues—local waste of resources and global lack of them—at once, with bicycles as the link. Working Bikes donates used bicycles to individuals and partner organizations in Chicago, Africa, the Caribbean, and Central America. In the communities to which we give donations, a bicycle can be the difference between work and unemployment, mobility and immobility. Since its founding in 1999, Working Bikes has donated tens of thousands of bikes, giving these old bicycles new lives.

We are very grateful for your support. If you have any questions, please contact us through our website, by phone, or drop into our shop on Western Avenue in Chicago.
