Project Bike Love co-founders Belen Ramirez and Erin Machan met on a bike ride and realized that by providing bikes to those who could not afford them they could help women around the world improve their lives. Erin explains:
“I started to see that there are so many women and young girls around the world that are unable to get to school, work, or medical care due to the dangers of traveling on foot,” Machan says. “Some of these dangers include, rape, murder, mugging, human trafficking and the list goes on and on. By giving these girls a bike we can change the world. I couldn’t believe how just a bike could change a girls life. A bike that I use for fun can actually be life changing for young women around the world and for a price that most of us spend on bike stuff weekly.”
