Our office will be closed Monday, May 25th for Memorial Day

As we approach Memorial Day, we take time to honor and remember the brave individuals who gave their lives in service to our country. We are grateful for their sacrifice and for the freedoms we share.

We hope everyone has a safe and meaningful holiday weekend.

For many people in our community, getting to work, class, or an appointment is not simple. Buses do not always run when they are needed, ride apps can be too expensive to sustain, and sometimes walking is the only option until a bicycle changes everything.

A bike means more than transportation. It means freedom, independence, less stress, and more access to opportunity. It means a student can make it to class on time, a job seeker can apply farther than walking distance, and someone rebuilding stability can keep moving forward with dignity.

That is why we are asking you to support Pedal Forward. Your gift helps place a bike in the hands of someone who needs it and supports the bigger vision of safer streets, complete streets, and stronger bike infrastructure for everyone.

What would a reliable bike mean for someone you know?

Make a one-time, monthly, quarterly, or yearly donation today
We need YOUR help to keep the free bikes rolling across the Mahoning Valley! Your support could mean new helmets, locks, replacement parts, and supplies needed to sustain this much needed resource for our neighbors.
