WELCOME Montreal!
WE DID IT!!! Thanks to every single person who got involved! The new Bicycles for Humanity Montreal managed to raise enough funds, to collect approximately 320 used bicycles and to fill a 40 foot shipping container full of bikes / parts / tools for Namibia. The vessel set sail November 26th, 2009 for Namibia and is destined to arrive in approximately 45 days. Congratulations to everyone for your beautiful efforts!
For those of you just tuning in, upon arrival to Namibia, our partner organization, BEN NAMIBIA, will convert the shipping container into a working bicycle shop, will train locals in the fine art of bicycle mechanics and will help the recipient organization create a sustainable micro economy. A portion of the bicycles will be gifted to health care providers, enabling them to access remote communities. Other bicycles will be gifted to school children and women who often need to travel great distances to access food, water and an education. The majority will be sold & rented to locals to help generate a sustainable micro-economy.
We are already looking forward to next year...please stay tuned. Send us an email and ask to join our mailing list for next years updates!

Thank-you for your interest and support in B4H – Montreal.
