Story Bikes Funds a School in Zimbabwe

MORE THAN JUST A BICYCLE

Thank you for being part of an incredible journey that has transformed the lives of students at Nejambezi Secondary School in Jambezi Village, near Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe. Your generous support has helped provide Buffalo Bicycles to over 120 students, making a lasting impact on their education and future.

At World Bicycle Relief, we believe that access to education is the key to breaking cycles of poverty and disease. For these students, a bicycle isn’t just a mode of transport—it’s a lifeline that helps them overcome long distances, attend school regularly, and achieve their dreams.

Buffalo Bicycles are designed with rural communities in mind. They’re built to last, carry heavy loads, and withstand tough terrain. These bikes are assembled locally, supporting jobs and strengthening the economy in the regions where they're used.

COMMUNITY-LED PROGRAM

Alongside the distribution of bicycles, our Bicycles for Education Empowerment Program (BEEP) empowers local communities by training individuals to form the Bicycle Supervisory Committee (BSC). This group ensures accountability, monitors progress, and helps maintain the program’s success.

The BSC selects students based on distance traveled and vulnerability, creating clear guidelines to ensure proper use and care of the bicycles. Monthly meetings allow the committee to report on challenges and improvements, helping us refine our approach and better serve the community.

We also train local field mechanics who can repair and maintain the bicycles, ensuring they remain functional for years. This not only supports the program but also creates new job opportunities and strengthens the local economy.

BICYCLE DISTRIBUTION CEREMONY

Every year, schools host a special Bicycle Distribution Ceremony—a joyful event filled with celebration and hope. At this ceremony, students and their families sign a contract, officially claiming ownership of the bike after graduation. In return, they commit to attending school regularly and using the bicycle to support their families, as long as it doesn’t interfere with their studies.

This tradition not only reinforces responsibility but also celebrates the power of education and mobility. It’s a moment that brings the entire community together to honor the students’ hard work and bright futures.

BICYCLES RECEIVED

Thanks to your donation, 120 students at Nejambezi Secondary School received life-changing bicycles at the Bicycle Distribution Ceremony.

Our vision for 2019 and beyond is to continue innovating, collaborating, and empowering communities through education and mobility. With your ongoing support, we aim to reach millions of children who face barriers due to distance, helping them build brighter, healthier, and more sustainable futures.

Every bicycle we distribute is more than a gift—it’s a step toward a better tomorrow. Thank you for being part of this journey and for helping make a real difference in the lives of students across Africa and beyond.
