Le peuple ukrainien a un besoin urgent de milliers de vélos

Bikes4Ukraine.org (vélos pour l'Ukraine) est une association danoise à but non lucratif qui collecte des dons afin d'envoyer des vélos d'occasion de toute l'Europe vers les villes ukrainiennes, où les citoyens en ont désespérément besoin. L'humble bicyclette est un outil vital dans les zones rurales et dans les zones urbaines bombardées. Elle aide les habitants à se procurer de la nourriture, des médicaments et de l'aide humanitaire, ainsi qu'à se rendre dans les hôpitaux et dans les écoles. Si vous aimez les vélos et les villes qui leur sont favorables, et que vous souhaitez aider l'Ukraine de la manière la plus humaine qui soit, nous vous serions reconnaissants de bien vouloir faire un don financier.

L'invasion de l'Ukraine se poursuit et les défis auxquels la population est confrontée sont nombreux. Il y a une crise du carburant, les voitures ont été détruites ou envoyées au front, les transports publics ont été détruits dans de nombreux endroits et avec les bombardements réguliers de l'infrastructure énergétique, les tramways électriques et les trolleybus ne sont pas fiables.

Pourquoi l'Ukraine a-t-elle besoin de vélos d'occasion ?

Dans les innombrables villes ukrainiennes qui ont été bombardées, occupées et qui sont généralement en ruines, les gens ont des problèmes de mobilité urbaine de base.

- Il n'y a pas de transports publics : Les Russes ont détruit les bus et les trolleybus, ou l'armée ukrainienne les utilise pour transporter les troupes. Dans les zones rurales, les habitants ont besoin de bicyclettes pour se rendre depuis les villages aux magasins, aux pharmacies ou aux médecins. Dans les villes, les habitants des quartiers bombardés ont besoin d'eau, de nourriture, de médicaments et d'aide humanitaire.

- Routes détruites : De nombreuses routes, tant dans les zones rurales que dans les villes, ont été détruites par des tirs d'obus ou par des véhicules militaires, ce qui les rend impraticables. Une bicyclette peut s'y aventurer beaucoup plus facilement.

- Pénurie d'essence : Il y a une pénurie de carburant en Ukraine. De plus, l'armée ukrainienne a besoin du peu d'essence disponible pour défendre le pays.

- Problèmes de transport : En raison des problèmes de transport causés par le covid-19 et de la difficulté d'entrer en Ukraine et d'en sortir, même si les Ukrainiens pouvaient obtenir les vélos en Europe, ils ne seraient pas en mesure de les faire venir puis entrer dans le pays. Nous avons donc mis en place des itinéraires logistiques depuis l'Europe jusqu'à Lviv.

- Personnes déplacées à l'intérieur du pays : La ville de Lviv compte quelque 150 000 réfugiés internes, dont beaucoup vivent dans des camps de réfugiés. Ils ont besoin d'un moyen de se déplacer - au supermarché, chez le médecin, à l'école, aux entretiens d'embauche, etc. Avec nos collègues ukrainiens, nous avons mis en place un système de partage de vélos dans les camps de réfugiés de la ville avec les vélos que nous y apportons, et nous avons également fait don de vélos aux camps de réfugiés.

Les vélos sont des bouées de sauvetage

Les vélos sont une véritable bouée de sauvetage pour de nombreuses personnes. Nos vélos sont utilisés par les travailleurs sociaux et les ONG dans le pays, pour livrer de la nourriture, des médicaments et des fournitures humanitaires aux citoyens vulnérables dans les zones libérées partout dans le pays. Les vélos peuvent sauver des vies et faciliter la vie quotidienne de nombreux citoyens ukrainiens. Vous pouvez suivre des actualités régulières à propos de nos vélos et de notre travail sur notre fil Instagram .

Mikael Colville-Andersen, fondateur de Bikes4Ukraine, a effectué six voyages en Ukraine, soit plus de quatre mois sur place, depuis juin 2022. Il a pu constater à quel point les Ukrainiens sont reconnaissants de recevoir des vélos et à quel point ceux-ci sont utiles pour faciliter la vie dans certaines des régions les plus déchirées par la guerre. Vous pouvez lire son article sur Le vélo en tant qu'outil vital et symbole en temps de guerre et de crise (en anglais).

Pas de limite supérieure au nombre de vélos dont l'Ukraine a besoin

Depuis juillet 2022, nous avons livré plus de 900 vélos en provenance de Copenhague, Berlin, Gand et Budapest à plus de 30 villes d'Ukraine. Chaque vélo est utilisé quotidiennement pour livrer de la nourriture, de l'eau, de l'aide humanitaire et des médicaments aux citoyens vulnérables dans les zones libérées, y compris celles qui sont encore bombardées par la Russie. Nous avons reçu des appels de dizaines d'autres villes qui ont désespérément besoin de vélos : Lviv, Chernihiv, Bucha, Mykolaiv, Dnipro, Kherson, Kharkiv - et la liste continue. Le besoin de vélos se fera encore sentir à l'avenir. Nous aimons l'idée d'"un million de vélos pour l'Ukraine", mais cela nécessitera un travail colossal et une collecte de fonds généreuse :-)

Votre don financier est un outil puissant

La collecte de fonds que nous recevons du monde entier est directement affectée à notre travail d'acheminement de vélos d'occasion vers l'Ukraine. Cela comprend les frais d'expédition, de logistique et de transport des vélos vers les villes ukrainiennes. Elle nous aide à nous rendre en Ukraine pour livrer les vélos et à payer les faibles coûts administratifs associés à notre organisation à but non lucratif. Chaque petit geste compte.

Vous pouvez suivre la livraison des vélos - grâce à votre don - sur nos médias sociaux et voir les personnes qui les reçoivent, à quel point elles sont reconnaissantes et comment les vélos sont utilisés à bon escient.

Aidez-nous à aider l'Ukraine

Aidez-nous à réaliser ce projet. Nos vélos permettent aux Ukrainiens de s'entraider.  Vous trouverez ci-dessous des photos de certains de nos vélos utilisés en Ukraine. Slava Ukraini !

The People of Ukraine Urgently Need Thousands of Bikes

Bikes4Ukraine.org is a Danish non-profit that has been fundraising financial donations in order to send used bikes from Western Europe to Ukrainian cities and towns, where they are veritable lifelines for citizens. The humble bicycle is a vital tool in bombed rural and urban areas, helping people get food, medicine and humanitarian aid, as well as transport to clinics and schools. If you like bikes and bike-friendly cities and want to help Ukraine in the most human way possible, then we would appreciate your financial donation.

The invasion of Ukraine continues and the challenges faced by the people are many. The need for bikes is still MASSIVE so every financial donation helps.

VERSION FRANÇAISE //  VERSIONE ITALIANA  // VERSIÓN EN ESPAÑOL

Why Does Ukraine Need Used Bikes?

In countless Ukrainian cities and towns that were bombed, occupied and are generally in ruins, people have issues with basic urban mobility.  

Destroyed Roads

Many roads, both in rural areas and in cities, have been destroyed by shelling or by military vehicles, making it impossible to drive on. A bicycle can navigate them much more easily and bikes are easy to repair. They are reliable and resilient and adaptable.

Lack of Transport

The Russians destroyed buses and trolleybuses, or the Ukrainian Army uses them to transport troops. In rural areas, people need bicycles to get from towns to cities to access shops, pharmacies or doctors. In cities, people in bombed-out neighborhoods need to get water, food, medicine and humanitarian aid.

High Gas Prices & Fewer Cars

Gas prices fluctuate wildly. Gas is almost as expensive in Ukraine as in the Nordic countries. Also, the gas needs of the Ukrainian Army is a priority. Many cars were destroyed or sent for use on the front lines.

Internally Displaced Persons

In many cities like Lviv, there are many refugees. They left everything behind when they left their homes and a bike is essential to their mobility to the  supermarket, doctor, school, job interviews, etc. With our Ukrainian colleagues, we have set up a bike-sharing system in refugee camps.

Bicycle are Lifelines

Our bikes are a veritable lifeline for many people. Our bikes are used by social workers and volunteers from NGOs in over 35 cities and towns in Ukraine. They are used to deliver food, medicine and humanitarian supplies to vulnerable citizens in the most devasted areas. Bikes can save lives and help make daily life easier for many citizens in Ukraine. You can follow regular updates about our bikes and our work on our Instagram. Mikael Colville-Andersen, founder of Bikes4Ukraine, has been in Ukraine on eight trips totaling more than eleven months since June 2022. He has seen how grateful Ukrainians are to receive the bikes and how useful they are in making life easier in some of the most war-torn parts of the nation. You can read this article of his about The Bicycle as a Vital Tool and Symbol in Times of War & Crisis.

No Upper Limit to How Many Bikes Ukraine Needs

Since July 2022, we have delivered over 900 bikes from Copenhagen, Berlin, Gent and Budapest to over 35 cities and towns in Ukraine. Every single bike is in use daily to deliver food, water, humanitarian aid and medicine to vulnerable citizens in de-occupied areas - including those that are still being shelled by Russia. We now have received appeals from dozens of more cities that desperately need bikes: Lviv, Chernihiv, Bucha, Mykolaiv, Dnipro, Kherson, Kharkiv - and the list goes on. There will be a need for bikes well into the future. 

Below you can see volunteers and social workers using our bikes to deliver vital goods to their fellow citizens.

Your Financial Donation is a Powerful Tool

The fundraising we receive from around the world goes directly to our work in getting used bikes to Ukraine. This includes paying for shipping, logistics and transport of the bikes to cities in Ukraine. It helps us get to Ukraine to deliver the bikes and to pay for the low administrative costs associated with our non-profit. Every little bit helps. 

You can follow the delivery of the bikes - thanks to your donation - on our social media and see the people who receive them, how grateful they are and how the bikes are put to good use.

Please Help Us Help Ukraine

Please help us make it happen. Below are some of our bikes used by volunteers and social workers to bring out good to their fellow citizens. Our bikes empower Ukrainians to help each other. Slava Ukraini!
