We have been friends with the staff of World Bicycle Relief for years and we trust that they put our donations to good use. For every tour we organise we will donate one Buffalo bike to World Bicycle Relief. World Bicycle Relief builds and distributes specially-designed, locally assembled, rugged bicycles. With the experience and expertise gained over the last 10 years designing and delivering more than 300,000 Buffalo Bicycles, WBR has developed an efficient, innovative and scalable model to successfully address the great need for reliable, affordable transportation in rural areas of developing countries.
We share World Bicycle Relief’s vision of a world where distance is no longer a barrier to independence and livelihood.
The Power of Bicycles - The Need
Walking is the primary mode of transportation for many people in the developing world. Everyday tasks can quickly become a struggle against time and fatigue. Going to school, visiting the health clinic, and delivering goods to market are more challenging because of the barrier of distance.
