With that said, I've been working with two amazing organizations to help better the world through bicycling. Please check out what they do and get inspired to get involved in something that you have a passion for!
Bikes Belong's mission is to put more people on bikes more often. They are a fantastic organization that helps fund a ton of cycling-minded projects throughout the US to help make cycling more enjoyable and safer. They are a huge partner with Safe Routes To School which helps create better networks of bike paths, routes, lanes, etc to help our kids get to school safely. I've had the privilege to work with them on multiple occasions through the Tim Johnson's Ride on Washington and Réve Tour and hopefully will continue these epic adventures in support of their work!
WBR is another amazing group of people utilizing the life-changing attributes of bikes to better the world. World Bicycle Relief is dedicated to providing access to independence and livelihood through the Power of Bicycles. They work to create and provide specifically engineered bikes to economically struggling communities in Africa and other places of need. WBR does more than hand out bikes, they work with these communities through micro-finacing and education to teach people how to use the bikes to grow businesses, allow kids to go to school, and access medical attention and facilities. WBR just makes sense. It's helping create responsibility, pride, and comradeship in these once despondent communities.
