Neighborhood Bike Works

Neighborhood Bike Works is a youth development organization in West Philadelphia serving neighborhood youth from 8 to 18. Our main shop is at St. Mary’s Church, 40th and Locust Walk, on the University of Pennsylvania campus, our Haddington neighborhood shop is at 60th and Vine. Since 1996 we have offered classes on bike repair and bike safety after school, on weekends, and in the summer. By completing a series of classes and fixing up used bikes donated by the community students can earn a bike for themselves with a helmet and a lock. In addition to providing a positive activity for young people we introduce them to the fun, the health benefits, and the freedom that come with cycling in the city.
