In August, Working Bikes loaded a container of bicycle destined for Ability Bikes in Ghana. You can learn a bit about our partner in Ghana by watching a short video. http://www.vimeo.com/13461740
Ability Bikes Cooperative is a bicycle micro-enterprise in Koforidua, Ghana that was established through the resources and support of Bikes Not Bombs - bikesnotbombs.org. Ability Bikes is cooperatively owned and operated by people with physical disabilities and is a full-service repair and retail bicycle shop that imports containers of used bikes, refurbishes and sells the bicycles, provides full-time jobs and skills development to people with physical disabilities, and challenges social structures oppressive to people with disabilities.
Ability Bikes imports containers of bicycles from Bikes Not Bombs, Re-Cycle, and Working Bikes Cooperative.
