Simply put, we collect used bikes, fix them, then distribute to those in need through our 60+ Pedal Partners. We serve rural and urban low-income kids, adults and families, at-risk youth, minority and immigrant populations in Northwest Arkansas. Our mission is to increase the number of people that have access to bikes for health, transportation, or recreation. While our program is based on “free” bikes, we suggest recipients donate what they can with $25 being a goal. We also provide free helmets with every bike. Pedal It Forward NWA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. All monetary and in-kind donations are tax-deductible. For more information, email [email protected] |

As with any organization, there are ongoing needs and financial obligations that must be met. While our bikes are donated, we have the cost of refurbishing bikes and purchasing new helmets, along with the rental of our shop space. There are marketing needs to ensure we're getting the word out about our program. And we have to manage the logistics of delivering the bikes. As the list continues, our gratitude grows for our thoughtful sponsors and affiliations. Thanks to their generous support and donation of their time, money and resources, we’re able to put more people on bikes every day! |
