As the festive season approaches, many of us think about upgrading our bikes. But what happens to the ones we leave behind? This year, you can ensure your old bike doesn’t just gather dust—it can help transform lives.
Through an exciting partnership with Cycle Exchange, the Buffalo Foundation, and Re-Cycle for Africa, your pre-loved bikes are being turned into a force for good. Cycle Exchange carefully assesses each donated bike: those that can be resold are sold to generate proceeds for the Buffalo Foundation’s impactful programs. Bikes that can’t be sold are donated to Re-Cycle, who ensure they reach communities in Africa where they can change lives.
This initiative embraces a true circular economy approach, keeping bikes out of landfills while creating essential transportation solutions for individuals in need. For many, these bikes provide access to education, work, and healthcare—critical steps toward self-sufficiency.
So, as you gear up for the holidays, why not spread a little extra joy? Your old bike can find a second life, empowering someone else to start a new chapter.
Donate today with Cycle Exchange and help pedal the way to change. 🚴♀️❤️
