Give a bike, change a life World Bicycle Relief empowers entire communities with life-changing mobility

Every day, people in rural regions across the globe travel miles on foot to access education, markets, health facilities and other vital services. World Bicycle Relief provides purpose-built Buffalo Bicycles to people facing the challenge of distance so they can achieve their goals and create opportunities for themselves and their communities. These bikes help students get to school, health workers to patients, farmers to market and more.

We’re raising $2.5 million for World Bicycle Relief

Last year, thanks to people like you, we raised $1.8 million for World Bicycle Relief. This year, we’re gearing up to raise $2.5 million more. Want to help? A donation of £120 gets one purpose-built Buffalo Bicycle to someone who needs it, but any amount helps.

And from now until 31 December, Trek will match all donations up to US $500,000, so you can double your impact.

Meet a few programme participants

Wozani, the village head

Wozani travels 10km a day to spread the news within the community and mediate disputes in the traditional court. His bicycle helps him fulfil his leaderly duties and gives him extra time to perform income-generating activities and spend time with his family.

Smile, student

Smile, whose favourite subject is math, dreams of becoming an accountant someday. Because her bicycle significantly reduces her travel time, she now has the energy to pay attention in class and gain the education she needs to pursue her dream.

Locadia, a childcare worker

Locadia plays a vital role in the community as a mother, childcare worker, and women’s savings group facilitator. Thanks to her bicycle, she can access more community members than ever before.

Levison, conservation ranger

Levison wakes early each morning to protect communities against predators such as lions and hyenas. He travels up to 30km per day, and his bicycle helps him cover more distance in less time.
