Billy's Bikes 4 Honduras Society hasn't added a story.
Help Us Improve The Lives of 1000's of Kids In Hondurous:
Honduras is the second poorest country in Central America. It is
a lower middle-income country with persistent poverty and inequality
challenges and a per-capita income of about US$1,780 in 2015.
An estimated 71 per cent of people live below the poverty line,
with youth being among the most vulnerable.
Billy's Bikes is our registered Canadian not-for-profit that
raises funds to send lightly used donated bicycles to Siguatepeque, Honduras.
Why should you care? The average 5-15 year old has to walk 3 -
7 km to and from school everyday. Since most families need all
members of the family to 'help out' on the family farm, the longer
the children are away from the farm, the less they can help the
family put food on the table (Hondurian's do not have the extensive
Welfare benefits Canadians enjoy). The proceeds from this charity
purchases bikes for children to keep them in school, learn social
skills, build a strong network of active friends, and learn about
sustainability.
The Society was started in June 2014, and so far, we have not
only met, but exceeded our donation goals every year.
Billy's Bikes is
your opportunity to make an epic impact on the
day-to-day lives of hundreds of children who do not enjoy the
luxuries you and I have.
Join thousands of supporters who have already donated (we are on
our second campaign already!) and know you have done something big
to conquer 3rd world poverty, something epic!
All you need is compassion, as little as $27.50, and then sit
back and get ready for a monthly update of where your money has
gone! That's right - when you donate we send you an update and tell
you exactly where your money has gone, step-by-step!
