About Bikes Across Borders
Bikes Across Border's (BAB) mission is to build solidarity partnerships by promoting autonomous transportation & cultural arts. After loosing our shop space at 300 Allen Street in the Summer of 2009, we are currently working out of The Yellow Bike Project spaces while we seek a permanent space of our own.
Bikes Across Border's has organized more than fifteen bike delivery caravans since 2001, sending over 700 bicycles to Mexico, Central America, and Cuba.
We facilitate the donation of bike tools, used bicycles and parts to support community organizations & bicycle cooperatives locally and in Latin America.
Besides working to support community groups with material aid we also work to organize international delegations, trips, and caravan shipments between grassroots organizations and people in order to foster solidarity across political borders.
We utilize popular education techniques, imagery, and theatre to cross language and cultural barriers in order to expose, explain and connect complex political, social, and environmental issues that affect people on all sides of the border.
Bikes Across Borders operates on the help and passion of volunteers and is entirely supported by donations from the community. BAB would like to thank The Yellow Bike Project, our volunteers, and supporters.
