Club Meeting: Reborn Bikes

Joe Kurmaskie will give a presentation on the organization Reborn Bikes, which refurbishes bicycles to give away to underserved populations.

Reborn Bikes is based on the idea that bicycles are a vital part of a thriving and sustainable community. Their mission is to bring refurbished bicycles and bike education to underserved populations while lowering carbon emissions in our region. Their programs serve 40,000 participants each year across the Pacific Northwest. They give away 10,000 plus refurbished bikes annually, making them the largest free bike distribution in the United States.
