Slipstream Group supports B4H

Bicycles for Humanity is run 100% by volunteers. They collect second-hand bikes from Australia and ship them to parts of Africa where they will be treasured by health workers and locals. But it doesn't stop there. The shipping container is converted to a business: a bike spare parts and mechanic shop.

The bike shop often becomes a community hang out destination too. And they train local people to become bike mechanics and the health workers and other bike owners pay to have their bikes serviced.

So the inputs are volunteers and second-hand bikes and the outcomes are:
Improved lives for new bike owners
Recycling items destined for landfill
Education and training
Job creation
Business building
Community building

The input they need from you and us, is money. To purchase a container and ship it costs approximately $11K. Please donate and become part of this story yourself.

They are currently raising funds for container #28 !!

A number of years ago Slipstream was looking to align with a charity that was a fit for our values. Once we found Bicycles for Humanity we arranged to meet the people who make the magic happen and started regularly contributing to this wonderful initiative.
