WeDeliver Wheels advocates the bicycle as a vehicle for change to empower at-risk individuals

WeDeliver Wheels was founded in 2022. We were formed with a mission to provide bicycles and cycling gear to non-profit organizations supporting underserved communities in the California Central Valley. With the help of volunteers, we assemble new bicycles at our annual Big Bike Build. Throughout the year, experienced mechanics repair “gently” used donated bicycles which we give to local nonprofits supporting at-risk youth. We also conduct bike repair clinics at local facilities where we fix flat tires, defective brakes and loose chains at no cost.

We listen to people’s needs for transportation in the California Central Valley. We partner with local nonprofits to meet the transportation needs of underserved communities and distribute bicycles to their clients.
