Mission Statement To provide a means whereby the economically disadvantaged or underprivileged can commute to work and thereby become integrated into the community. To provide safe and reliable transportation to individuals who have affirmed that they live below the poverty line and cannot therefore afford the expense of owning and operating a personal motor vehicle. To provide a program wherein volunteers can advance their bicycle repair and maintenance skills. To fund program expenses through donations, grants, sale of bicycles and fees for services.



Bike Athens Bicycle Recycling Program, a cooperative venture with local social support agencies, distributes reconditioned bikes to individuals in the Athens community who are underserved by private and public transportation. We rely exclusively on volunteers to recondition the bikes. We have refurbished over 1000 bicycles since our program started in 2001.
