Boise Bicycle Project

This week the Boise Bicycle Project is launching a program that will offer families a new way to purchase bikes for their kids. The goal of the nonprofit is to provide access to bikes in an affordable, reliable and sustainable way. In order to help achieve this goal, BBP is introducing a sliding-scale payment method where parents pay what they can afford in exchange for a new summer ride for their kids.

For 16 years, the Boise Bicycle Project has been making kids dreams come true through the Holiday Kids Bike Giveaway. This year they still need your help to make sure each child who is dreaming of a bicycle this holiday season gets one.
