Kallari Bikes project

The Centre Region Bike Coalition (CRBC) and the Penn State Center for Sustainability are working to improve the lives of the indigenous children in Ecuador. Children in Tena, Ecuador travel between 2 - 3 hours on foot to attend school. Too often, the journey to school undermines the benefits for these children and leads to high levels of middle school dropouts.

Deep in the Amazonian Rainforest, bicycles have become the most efficient mode of transportation. By donating a bicycle, you can help to break the dropout cycle in this region of Ecuador. The Kallari children deserve an education so that they too can become productive members of society.

If you don't have a bike to donate, please consider a monetary donation to help offset the costs of packing and shipping the bikes to Ecuador.
