Bicycles for Humanity
Western Australia (B4HWA)

B4HWA is part of an exciting global volunteer-run, non-profit organisation that uses donated bikes to help alleviate poverty through sustainable transport.

Every year around 1.5 million bikes are sold across Australia – about around half of these will end up unused or abandoned.

We put this huge resource to work in some of the world’s poorest regions.

SUNDAY WORKSHOP SESSIONS RETURN

Announcing our popular Sunday volunteer workshops are on again.  Do you want to contribute to our charitable effort, but can’t make it during the week?

Then come along between 09:00am and 1:00pm on the second Sunday of any month, commencing on Sunday 11th September.  Everyone welcome.

Fixing up a bike or two can be a very rewarding parent – child bonding session.

No previous experience is necessary – our friendly volunteers will guide you.

How You Can Help

Volunteer

B4HWA is completely volunteer run and can only do the work that we do because of the brilliant people donating their time to our organisation.

The new B4H WA Bike Shed is now operational at Unit 1, 7 Elmsfield Road Midland, and the old workshop at Jack Williamson Oval has been closed.

Workshop hours:

Weekly: Volunteers are welcome every Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 9am to 1pm.

Monthly: We are also open on the second Sunday of the month from 9am to 1pm.

Sunday workshop sessions recommence from 11 September 2022

Because the health and wellbeing of you and your loved ones is paramount, especially while the COVID 19 pandemic remains a threat, there are strict work protocols enforced at the workshop, in accordance with Government Health advice. 

On arrival you will be expected to enter your name and contact details in the attendance register.  B4H WA has provided hand sanitiser and encourages all volunteers to use it regularly. Other Government measures may be implemented from time to time.

We are all in this together.  If we all abide by the rules, we can all stay healthy and have an enjoyable time continuing our charitable purpose and serving those in need.

B4HWA has a workshop, known as the B4H WA Bike Shed, located at Unit 1, 7 Elmsfield Road, Midvale. Here we collect donated bicycles, work to repair them and pack them into shipping containers for transportation to NGO partners in Africa or to communities in remote WA.

Gift your bike

B4H WA relies on the donation of bicycles from the public to achieve its charitable aims.

If you have a bike or bikes gathering dust in the shed, scroll down below to see a list of locations that you can drop off donated bicycles.

In the developing world the most useful are adult sized sturdy hybrids or mountain bikes and BMX sized bikes.

Generally we can’t accept small children’s bikes because we can’t find homes for the really little ones, but anything from BMX size up to full adult size is in demand.  The BMX’s are particularly useful for our WA remote community schools program.
