CHANGING LIVES ONE PEDAL AT A TIME
Do you remember the joy of riding a bike? What about the peace of mind of knowing you can get where you need to go for life’s essentials? With Pedal Forward, you can share both of those gifts with others, by helping local children get to school, local veterans get to medical care, and locals experiencing homelessness get to food and shelter.
Formally recognized as a non-profit 501(c)(3) in June 2024, Pedal Forward is giving it all we’ve got to provide stable transportation to low-income and other in-need populations in the quad-cities community.
Reliable transportation is an often overlooked, but crucial first step towards well-being and stability. Pedal Forward is providing donated bicycles, parts, and maintenance to underserved community members of all ages and backgrounds, at no cost to them. Our work empowers underserved communities, facilitating access to education, employment, recreation, and other essential resources.
Pedal Forward aims to improve the quality of life of our recipients by fostering a sense of independence and enhancing their ability to contribute to their communities through the provision of bicycles.
