For many rural people in poverty, a bicycle completely transforms their life, as they can travel to work or take their goods to a more profitable market.
Our bicycle department is in charge of overhauling bicycles so that they are ready to be allocated to those who are in need.
What We Have Further training will be provided to ensure the volunteer is able to handle the daily duties.
Tools and materials needed for overhauling are also provided.
Why this is important Crossroads is dedicated to providing help to those who are in need.
Around 95% of the overhauled bicycles will then be allocated internationally, while the rest will go to those who are in need locally.
