Communities on the Move

Mobilizing communities to change their world with bicycles

“When I received the bicycle, I felt excited. It helped me get to school before lessons started. I dream that other children can get a bicycle so that they can overcome distance and they can go to school every day.”

“I act as a leader in the traditional court for 10 villages. Traveling long distances has been my greatest challenge. The bicycle has come as a great relief to my work serving the community.”

Siduduzo

“I am now able to reach more patients and do more home visits. I visit my patients in time, I come home in time, cook dinner for my boys in time and have time enough to rest.”

“The coming of the bicycle is a great relief for me and my work. It means I will be able to do more work at home to support my family, and for the community, it means more boreholes will be functional through rapid response.”

Haward

“I didn’t know anything about bicycles. Now my life has changed. I can look after my family. Our children are able to attend school, and our community is developed.”

Having a bicycle now is a huge motivation. I can meet more people in a day. With this bicycle, I will make sure women in my community are not left out.

Community means the people around us, starting with those close by then radiating outwards in concentric circles, to eventually include all of us who live on this planet. We are all intertwined which is why we need to care about and take care of each other.
