Your donations of bikes and parts make a big difference! Bikes are removed from the waste stream, you might get a tax receipt, training opportunities are provided for underrepresented mechanics, refurbished bikes are given to people facing financial barriers, awesome bikes and parts are available at our shop, and proceeds from sales go to support community bike programs. Please continue to donate bikes are parts to us! We’re grateful for your support. #bikes #vancouver #yvr #usedbikes #donate #donations #donatevancouver #donatebikes #donatebikeparts #community
